This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to check hydraulic system components, identify, and repair or replace faulty components.

Hydraulic system components are identified and inspected and assessed using fluid power principles to predetermined specifications interpreted from data sheets and circuits diagrams.

Where straightforward removals/replacement of components from a hydraulic system is required unit MEM18055 Dismantle, replace and assemble engineering components and unit MEM18071 Connect and disconnect fluid conveying system components, should be selected as appropriate.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Band: A

Unit Weight: 4

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assingnment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.
Hydraulic system components include one (1) or more of the following:	static and dynamic seals linear and semi-rotary actuators fixed and variable displacement pumps pressure, directional and flow control valves hydraulic motors reservoirs contamination control components (filtration) fluid conductors/fittings other associated equipment

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.

Observation Checklist

Tasks to be observed according to workplace/college/TAFE policy and procedures, relevant legislation and Codes of Practice	Yes	No	Comments/feedback
Follow standard operating procedures (SOPs)
Identify the characteristics and operational function of each system component
Localise faulty system components and confirm malfunction by inspection and testing using fluid power principles, procedures and safety requirements
