About the Book
The book, entitled as ‘Practical Book: Industrial Hydraulics -Basic Level’, contains a set of practical exercises that assist in organizing practical training in basic industrial hydraulic technology. These exercises are intended to strengthen the theoretical understanding and enhance the technical competence of the trainees who are undergoing a basic hydraulic course.
The theoretical descriptions of individual components used for carrying out the exercises are covered in the textbooks ‘Industrial Hydraulic Systems and Circuits—Basic Level in the SI Units’ and ‘Industrial Hydraulics—Basic Level in the English Units’ by the same author.
