Each Basic Hydraulics training system features standard industrial grade components. This attention to quality gives students experience they would normally only get on-the-job by helping them recognize industrial components and how to troubleshoot them more effectively. Components included with Basic Hydraulics are pre-mounted on circuit panels with silk-screened labels next to each, which facilitates ease of use and identification.

In the rare event that a burning ember or spark is drawn into the fume extraction unit, there is the possibility that debris in the filters could ignite. Although any resultant fire would typically be retained within the fume extraction unit, this would cause significant damage and in extreme circumstances, the risk may extend beyond the extraction unit. For processes where such risks have been identified, additional protection in the form of an in-line firebox is an additional precaution.
