Hydrostatic Transaxle: A multicomponent as sem bly including a gear case and a hydrostatic
trans mis sion.
Hydrostatic Transmission: The combination of a hy drau lic pump and motor in one housing to
form a de vice for the control and transference of power.
Inlet Line: A supply line to the pump.
Integrated Hydrostatic Transaxle (IHT): The com bi na tion of a hydrostatic transmission and
gear case in one housing to form a complete transaxle.
Manifold: A conductor which provides multiple con nec tion ports.
Neutral: Typically described as a condition in which fl uid fl ow and system pressure is below that
which is required to turn the output shaft of the motor.
Pressure Decay: A falling pressure.
Priming: The fi lling of the charge circuit and closed loop of the fl uid power system during start
up, fre quent ly achieved by pressurizing the fl uid in the inlet line.
Purging: The act of replacing air with fl uid in a fl uid power system by forcing fl uid into all of the
com po nents and allowing the air a path of es cape.
Rated Flow: The maximum fl ow that the power sup ply system is capable of maintaining at a
spe cifi c op er at ing pressure.
Scoring: Scratches in the direction of motion of me chan i cal parts caused by abrasive con tam i-
nants.
Swash Plate: A mechanical device used to con trol the displacement of the pump pistons in a
fl uid power sys tem.
System Charge Check Valve: A valve con trol ling the replenishing fl ow of fl uid from a charge
circuit to the closed loop in a fl uid power system.
System Pressure: The pressure which over comes the total resistance in a system, in clud ing
all losses.
Valve: A device which controls fl uid fl ow di rec tion, pressure, or fl ow rate.
Variable Displacement Pump: A pump in which the displacement per cycle can be varied.
Volumetric Displacement: The volume for one rev o lu tion.
