ISO standards for regulation of hydraulic processes


In the 20th century, such physical categories as thermodynamics and hydraulics became the basis for the creation of the most used technologies today, which is why, since that moment, the scientific and technological base and the described rules and recommendations for the operation of equipment have been actively developing. This trend has continued to this day and has acquired the form of international standards that are used both in individual countries and at the global level to unify the entire system. A large number of equipment using hydraulic fluid processes exist today in large scale production. That is why it is very important to pay attention to the latest international standards created for this category of equipment. We will introduce you to some of the most important and significant ones today.


Hydraulic fluid power - Measurement techniques

ISO 9110-1: 2020


In order to create a certain mechanism or an established system in production, it is necessary to have a certain regulatory and legal base, as well as technological instructions and explaining the methods of applying a particular technology. The creation of these recommendations and prescriptions can be possible with the correct measuring techniques that were applied at the initial stages, which is why it is so important to have in place international standards that govern these measuring techniques. One of them is ISO 9110-1: 2020.


This document establishes general principles for the measurement of performance parameters under static or steady-state conditions. This document provides guidance on the sources and magnitudes of magnitudes to be expected in the calibration of and measurements using hydraulic fluid power components.


It describes practical requirements for assessing the capability of the measuring system, and hence the level of uncertainty of the measurement system, or for assisting in developing a system which will meet a prescribed level of uncertainty.


One of the main features of this International Standard is that it directly describes the practical requirements that have been obtained and created empirically. If you are interested in increasing your competitiveness and in promoting your organization to more global levels, the availability of international standards will greatly speed up and simplify this process.


Hydraulic fluid power - Measurement techniques

ISO 9110-2: 2020


Each International Standard has a specific number of parts. When it comes to the regulation of hydraulic processes, it should be understood that this category of standards is quite extensive and one part of the standard cannot describe all possible variations in the application of this technology. That is why various parts are created that more detail each technology separately. The next one of the most important international standards, or rather part of the previous standard, is ISO 9110-2: 2020.


This document establishes procedures for measuring the average steady-state in a hydraulic fluid power conduit. It is applicable to the measurement of average steady-state pressure in closed conduits with inside diameters greater than 3 mm, transmitting hydraulic fluid power with average fluid velocities less than 25 m / s and average steady-state static pressures less than 70 MPa. It is not applicable to sensors which are flush mounted with, or an integral part of, the closed fluid conduit wall. It provides the formula for estimating the total uncertainty in a given pressure measurement.


If similar names as well as the description misleads you and you are afraid to choose the wrong standard that is suitable specifically for your field of activity, you can always contact our team of specialists who will advise you and help you choose the most relevant document for you.


Hydraulic fluid power - Plain-end, seamless and welded precision steel tubes - Dimensions and nominal working pressures

ISO 10763: 2020


Measuring processes largely determine the regulatory and technical base of a particular production process. Parameters such as the size of parts, mechanical systems and the pressure level in hydraulic processes are of paramount importance. In order for the control to be carried out in the highest quality way, such international standards as ISO 10763: 2020 are created.


This document specifies sizes and nominal working pressures for seamless and welded precision steel tubes with outside diameters in accordance with ISO 4397, and wall thicknesses and mechanical properties in accordance with ISO 3305. The nominal working pressures included in this document reflect a design factor ratio of 4 to 1 applied to the calculated burst pressures.


Since this document has clear characteristics that allow you to check the possibility of its implementation in the production processes of your organization, we strongly recommend that you check them to be sure that you have obtained the correct document.


Hydraulic fluid power - Cylinders - Acceptance tests

ISO 10100: 2020


International standards are created both for various complex systems and mechanisms and for individual parts of certain equipment. When it comes to hydraulics and its international regulation, namely the standardization of cylinders, it is necessary to pay attention to ISO 10100: 2020.


This document specifies acceptance and function tests for hydraulic fluid power cylinders.


Hydraulic processes and their regulation is a rather capacious concept from the point of view of considering them as an object for international standardization. That is why when we describe the list of documents and regulatory acts that are used in association with this industry, we indicate the verification of technical parameters and their compliance with the field


Why is it so important to regulate hydraulic processes?


Since the equipment associated with the aforementioned technology has a very high level of popularity, and is also quite common in global markets, then the scale of its use entails a corresponding scale of the potential for physical and financial risks. The use of international standards will allow not only to minimize financial losses, but also to protect people interacting with this technology from possible dangers. That is why if you want to be sure of the smooth functioning of your business structure or production, we recommend having one of the above-mentioned standards in stock without fail.
