Hydraulic Laboratory Set Up

[testingtwentyfive]

I was wondering if anyone knew of any good hydraulic laboratory set ups for university use. I've been looking and haven't seem to have found to much. This is for about a third year status lab, looking for something fairly cheap ($1000-$20,000), and which would demonstrate hydraulics to the students.

If your not sure of any good labs, any kind of neat hydraulic equipement would be usefull for ideas as well. I've already been looking into a quick up take master cylinder for a breaking system. Any other ideas would be quite helpfull.

LEGO has some neat pneumatic equipment that can be used to assemble and run circuits.

has some information on LEGO and a short course on their site.

Also, type in hydraulic trainers at Google and you will find many offerings at about any price.
