MSH Simple Hydraulic Unit
INNOVATIVE SYSTEMS
The Simple Hydraulic Unit, "MSH", has been designed to demonstrate how a fluid can be used to transmit a force and to study the relationships between the force on the pistons, the cross-sectional area of the pistons and the fluid pressure in the unit.

General Description
The Simple Hydraulic Unit, "MSH", has been designed for studies related to mechanical engineering and motor vehicles. It is used to demonstrate how a liquid can be used to transmit a force.
The unit can also be used to conduct experiments to study the relationships between the force on the pistons, the cross-sectional area of the pistons and the fluid pressure in the unit.
The unit consists of three cylinders and pistons whose cross sections are in the ratio 1, 2 and 6. These three cylinders and the pressure gauge are connected in parallel. With the ON/OFF keys included in the circuit, any of the cylinder units can be isolated from the unit.
Load hangers are supplied.
