oil to pass through the valve back to the reservoir. The relief
valve limits the system pressure to a pre-set amount. Relief valves
are commonly incorporated into the directional control valve.
A hydraulic system using a double acting cylinder and a 4-way
valve differs from a single acting cylinder system in that the cyl-
inder can exert force in both directions. With the control valve in
neutral, flow is returned to the reservoir. When shifted in one
direction, oil is directed to the piston side of the cylinder, caus- DOUBLE

the valve back to the reservoir. If the valve is shifted to neutral,
oil in the cylinder is trapped, holding it in a fixed position. When
the valve is shifted in the opposite position, oil is directed to the

the piston side passes through the valve back to the reservoir. RELIEF VALVE
Cylinder extend force is the result of pressure (psi) times the VALVE
piston area (minus any force resulting from the pressure acting PUMP
against the rod side of the piston). Retract force is a result of the
pressure (psi) times the area difference between the rod and
the piston (minus any force resulting from pressure acting against
the piston side of the cylinder).
All of the systems described above are open center systems due to the oil flowing through the control valve back to
the tank. Most systems are this type. Closed center systems use control valves with the inlet port blocked and
variable displacement pumps. With the control valve in neutral, the pump is “de-stroked” to zero flow.
The function of a cylinder in a fluid power system is to convert energy in the fluid stream into an equivalent
amount of mechanical energy. Its power is delivered in a straight-line, push-pull motion.

The standard double-acting cylinder with piston rod out one end, is used in the majority of applications. It develops
force in both directions of piston travel. The double-end-rod type is a variation of the standard cylinder but having a
piston rod extending out both end caps. It is occasionally used where it is necessary to have equal area on both
sides of the piston, such as a steering application, or where one of rod extensions is to be used for mounting a cam
for actuation of a limit switch, or for mounting a stroke limiting stop. The single-acting cylinder develops force in one
direction, and is retracted by the reactive force from the load or an internal or external spring. The single-acting ram
is a construction often used on fork lift mast raise, or a refuse body tailgate raise, or a high tonnage press cylinders.
The telescoping cylinder is built in both single-acting and double-acting types. Its purpose is to provide a long stroke
with a relatively short collapsed length. The single-acting telescopic is a construction often used to raise dump trucks
and dump trailers. The double-acting telescopic is a construction often used in garbage bodies to pack and eject the
load.
which have equal areas on both sides of the piston. Cylinder Force Against a Load.
Example: The extension force is 95 PSI x 50 sq. in. = 4750 lbs. The opposing force on the rod side is 25 PSI x 40
sq. in. = 1000 lbs. Therefore, the net force which the cylinder can exert against a load in its extension direction is
4750 - 1000 = 3750 lbs. In making cylinder force calculation we sometimes assume that the opposite side of the
piston is at atmospheric pressure, and that the counter-force is zero. On some kinds of loads this can lead to serious
error.
Note: Most designers try to eliminate back pressure to get full extend force, but there will always be back pressure.
Standard catalog cylinder models are not designed to take any appreciable side load on the piston rod. They
must be mounted so the rod is not placed in a bind at any part of the stroke. If the direction of the load changes
during the stroke, hinge mounting must be used on both the rod end and rear end. Use guides on the mechanism, if
necessary, to assure that no side load is transmitted to the cylinder rod or piston.
Rod Buckling
Column failure or buckling of the rod may occur if the
cylinder stroke is too long relative to the rod diameter. The
exact ratio of rod length to rod diameter at which column
failure will occur cannot be accurately calculated, but the
“Column Strength” table in this manual shows suggested safe ratios for normal applications.
Tension and Compression Failures
All standard cylinders have been designed with sufficiently large piston rods so failure will never occur either in
tension or compression, provided the cylinder is operated within the manufacturers pressure rating.
Rod Bearing Failure
Rod bearing failures usually occur when the cylinder
is at maximum extension. Failures occur more often on
hinge or trunnion mount cylinders, in which the rear sup-
port point is located considerably behind the rod bearing.
If space permits, it is wise to order cylinders with longer stroke than actually required, and not permit the piston to
approach to the front end while under full load.
Stop Collar
On those application where it is necessary to let the
piston “bottom out” on the front end, the cylinder may be
ordered with a stop collar. The stop collar should be
especially considered on long strokes if the distance
between support exceeds 10 times the rod diameter, if the maximum thrust is required at full extension, and if the
cylinder has a rear flange, clevis, tang, or trunnion mounting.

Designing With Cylinders
Example: Find the effective force exerted by a 3-inch bore cylinder against a lever when the cylinder is operating at
3000 PSI and when its axis is at an angle of 55 degrees with the lever axis.
First , find the full force developed by the cylinder: FF (full force) = 7.07 (piston area) x 3000 PSI = 21,210 lbs.
Next, find the effective force at 550: EF (effective force) = 21,210 x 819 (sin 550) = 17,371 lbs.
Since maximum cylinder force is delivered in the right angle position, the hinge points for the cylinder and lever
should be located, if possible, so the right angle falls close to the lever position which requires the greatest torque
(force).
Note: The working angles on a hinged units, such as a dump truck, refuse body packer blade, or a crane, are

All cylinder parts, with the exception of a few items, are lubricated by the hydraulic oil in the
circuit. Particular attention must be paid to keep the oil in the circuit clean. Whenever there is a
hydraulic component failure (cylinder, pump, valve), and there is a reason to feel that metal par-
ticles may be in the system, the oil must be drained, the entire system flushed clean, and any filter
screens thoroughly cleaned or replaced. New oil should be supplied for the entire system. Oil
suitable and recommended for use in circuits involving Commercial cylinders should meet the
following specifications:
General Recommendations:
A good quality hydraulic oil conforming to the characteristics listed above is essential to the satisfactory performance
and long life of any hydraulic system.
Oil should be changed on regular schedules in accordance with the manufactures recommendations and the system
periodically flushed.
Oil operating temperature should not exceed 200o F. (93o C.) with a maximum of 180o F. (82o C.) generally
recommended. 120o F. to 140o F. (50o C. to 60o C.) is generally considered optimum. High temperatures result in
rapid oil deterioration and may point out a need for an oil cooler or a larger reservoir. The nearer to optimum
temperature, the longer the service life of the oil and the hydraulic components.
Reservoir size should be large enough to hold and cool all the fluid a system will need, yet it should not be wastefully
large. Minimum required capacity can vary anywhere between 1 and 3 times pump output. The reservoir must be
able to hold all of the fluid displaced by retracted cylinders when the system is not operating, yet provide space for
expansion and foaming.
Oil poured into the reservoir should pass through a 100 mesh screen. Pour only clean oil from clean containers into
the reservoir.
Never use Crank Case Drainings, Kerosene, Fuel Oil, or any Non-Lubricating Fluid, such as Water.

STORAGE
It pays to keep spare hydraulic cylinders on hand for use when you need them. But, you must know and
follow these recommended storage practices or the cylinders can be ruined. Hydraulic cylinders, though often large
and unwieldy, are precision machines with finely finished parts and close tolerances. And they’re expensive. So
handle them with care.
For optimum storage life, hydraulic cylinders should be kept in an environment that is protected from excessive
moisture and temperature extremes. A hot, dry dessert climate with cold nights, for example, must be accommodated
when choosing the storage area. Daytime heat quickly bakes oil out of sealing materials, which causes leaks and
rapid wear when the cylinder is placed in service. Cooling at night causes water condensation and corrosion damage
to wear surfaces. Storage areas that allow exposure to rain, snow and extreme cold must like wise be avoided.
It‘s best to store cylinders indoors if possible. But indoors or out, be sure that plugs or closures are properly
installed in all ports to keep out moisture and dirt. However, overtightening of port plugs should be avoided. Widely
varying temperatures and tightly closed ports may cause pressure inside the cylinder to build up to the point where
the piston moves far enough to expose the rod to corrosion or contamination. Try to choose a storage location where
the cylinders are protected from physical damage. Even a little ding from a falling bar or forklift tine can cause trouble
later.
Cylinders, Particularly large ones, should be stored closed in a vertical position with the rod end down. Be
sure they’re blocked securely to keep them from toppling. Storing with the rod ends down keeps oil on the seals,
which protects them from drying out. This is more critical with fabric and butyl seals than with urethane sealing
materials. Storing single-acting cylinders with the rod end up can cause port closures to pop open and leak, exposing
the sleeves to corrosion damage and contamination. Storing with the rod end down also discourages the temptation
to lift a cylinder by the rod eye – a dangerous practice. If horizontal storage cannot be avoided, the rod or cylinder
should be rolled into a new position every two months or so to prevent drying, distortion and deterioration of the
seals. Don’t forget that a cylinder can be a major source of contamination. A small scratch or nick on the sleeve will
quickly shred packing and contaminate the system. Store cylinders carefully and keep them clean.
The following procedures should be followed in order to prevent oxidation and maintain the surfaces of a
mounted hydraulic cylinder during idle periods. These idle periods may include; inventory units, demo units, out of
service units, etc.
· All machined surfaces left expose should be coated with a light film of grease, if not oxidation will occur.
· If oxidation is present, apply a light coat of oil to the surfaces.
· Buff surfaces with 320 or 400 grit sandpaper. Do not buff surfaces up and down the length, buff only around the
circumference.
· If after buffing, the surfaces show evidence of oxidation damage i.e., pitting, the cylinder should be inspected by
an authorized service center for evaluation.
· Operation of a hydraulic cylinder with surface damage will shorten the longevity and preclude any warranty
express or implied.
INSTALLATION
·Cleanliness is an important consideration, and Parker cylinders are shipped with the ports plugged to protect
them from contaminants entering the ports. These plugs should not be removed until the piping is to be installed.
Before making the connection to the cylinder ports, the piping should be thoroughly cleaned to remove all chips
or burrs which might have resulted from threading or flaring operations. One small foreign particle can cause
premature failure of the cylinder or other hydraulic system components. If oxidation is present, apply a light coat
of oil to the surfaces.
· Proper alignment of the cylinder piston rod and its mating component on the machine should be checked in both
the extended and retracted positions. Improper alignment will result in excessive rod gland and/or cylinder bore
wear.
· Cylinders operating in an environment where air drying material are present such as fast- drying chemicals,
paint, or welding splatter, or other hazardous conditions such as excessive heat, should have shields installed to
prevent damage to the piston rod and piston rod seals.
