The recommendations contained herein are confined to the input and output characteristics of electrohydraulic mechanical feedback servoactuators. The information presented should be useful for standardizing the terminology and for specification of physical and performance parameters. The recommendations do not restrict nor attempt to define the internal design characteristics of servoactuators. As such, the material is equally applicable to servoactuators having different internal functioning, different ratings, different physical size, etc. In certain instances, standards for actuator design are recommended to increase interchangeability as, for example, pigtail color-coding and actuator polarity. The specifications contained herein should be adequate to describe electrohydraulic mechanical feedback servoactuators used for position control. Additional specifications may be necessary to define special requirements for specific control systems.

This recommended practice is intended as a guide for the specification of electrohydraulic mechanical feedback servoactuators used for position control. It provides performance definitions and capabilities that are specific to mechanical-feedback servoactuators and different from those applicable to electrical-feedback servoactuators.

Various gas systems are classified in a broad sense, component operation is described in moderate detail, pertinent design parameters are discussed, and possible modes for system operation are listed.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) describes the design conditions under which tests should be conducted to demonstrate satisfactory performance of a flight critical servo-actuator under the maximum allowable particulate contamination in the associated airplane hydraulic system. Additionally, this document also describes the recommended tests and the required acceptance criteria.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) is intended as a guide to aid in the specification and testing of electrohydraulic servovalves. The recommendations contained in this ARP are confined to the input and output characteristics of electrohydraulic servovalves, the primary focus being four-way flow control servovalves. Three-way flow control servovalves are discussed to a limited extent, and terminology recommended for use with pressure control servovalves is also presented. The information presented should be useful in standardizing the terminology, the specification of physical and performance parameters, and the test procedures used in conjunction with these components. The recommendations do not restrict nor attempt to define the internal design characteristics of servovalves. As such, the material is equally applicable to servovalves having different internal functioning, different ratings, different physical size, etc.

In this document a servovalve is defined only as a valve, normally used in a servomechanism which has a hydraulic output (flow, pressure) which is a function of an electrical input (voltage, current, differential current). This ARP will confine itself to describing those parameters which are peculiar to such valves.
