Hydraulic Manifold Block are machine parts that act as junctions between components in a Hydraulic System to regulate fluid flow. Some of the elements that utilise these blocks include pumps and actuators. The design of Hydraulic Manifolds allows an operator to monitor how fluid moves in different parts just as a switchboard does with an electric current. A good example of how a manifold works is in a backhoe loader. In this machine, there is a front and back bucket with telescopic arms, where the fluid flows. A Manifold in this instance is attached to the levers, and when operated, it diverts, shuts off or turns on the flow to the arms. The operation of the Manifold determines how it behaves.
