Components of the hydraulic oil tank

Key Components & Design Features  ank Body – Typically made of steel, aluminum, or reinforced plastic, designed to withstand pressure and corrosion.

Baffles – Internal plates that prevent fluid turbulence, promote cooling, and aid in contaminant settling.

Inlet & Outlet Ports – Ensure proper fluid flow between the tank and hydraulic pump.

Air Breather & Filter – Prevents dust and moisture from entering while allowing air exchange.

Drain Plug – Allows easy removal of old or contaminated fluid.

Sight Glass/Dipstick – Monitors oil level to prevent under- or overfilling.

Heating/Cooling Elements – Some tanks include coils or heaters to maintain optimal fluid temperature.
