Abstract:
The article presents the results of a developed model and experimental studies of the Minimess® hydraulic signal hose's influence on the changes in the indications of the pressure transducer during the high dynamics of hydrostatic drives and controls. The model test results show that measuring hoses can be used as hardware low-pass filters during the digital recording of pressure waveforms. However, the cut-off frequency values of the measuring hoses obtained using the model are dramatically lower than those observed during the experiment. The experiment results show that the measuring hoses can only be used without any limitations to measure the average pressure value. In the case of measuring pressure waveforms, the user should carefully choose the measuring hose length. For this reason, the relationship between the measuring hose length and its cut-off frequency should be known.
