Full title and description

ISO 10100:2020 — Hydraulic fluid power — Cylinders — Acceptance tests. This international standard specifies acceptance and functional tests for hydraulic cylinders used in hydraulic fluid power systems; the document is available as an ISO PDF publication for purchase.

Abstract

This standard defines the procedures and minimum requirements for acceptance and function testing of hydraulic fluid power cylinders, including pressure, leak and functional operation checks to verify conformity at delivery or installation. It replaces the previous 2001 edition and its amendment(s).

Key bibliographic and status details from the ISO record and national adoption listings.

Scope

Specifies acceptance and functional tests for hydraulic fluid power cylinders to be performed at the manufacturer’s or supplier’s site or at delivery. The tests cover procedures to verify pressure-holding capability, leak-tightness and basic operational function so that a purchaser can confirm conformity to agreed requirements. The standard is intended for single- and double-acting cylinders used in general hydraulic applications.

Key topics and requirements

• Definitions and test conditions for acceptance and functional testing of hydraulic cylinders.
• Pressure test requirements (static/holding pressure checks) and criteria for pass/fail.
• Leakage and tightness testing procedures for piston rod seals and cylinder housings.
• Operational/function checks to confirm stroke, cushioning (where applicable) and control features.
• Documentation and test record requirements to demonstrate conformance at delivery.

Typical use and users

Used by hydraulic component manufacturers, quality and test engineers, procurement and inspection teams, integrators and end users who need to verify that delivered hydraulic cylinders meet contractual performance and safety requirements. Also referenced by test laboratories and certification bodies performing acceptance inspections.

Related standards

Standards commonly referenced alongside ISO 10100 include other ISO and national standards on hydraulic cylinders, mounting dimensions and bore/rod sizes (for example ISO 3320 series and standards covering housing and mounting dimensions such as ISO 10766 and other fluid power component standards). National adoptions and related fluid-power standards provide complementary dimensional or performance requirements.
