🔍 Key Concepts

• Hydraulic pump noises and what they usually indicate • Difference between aeration (air in the fluid) and internal leakage/slippage • How cavitation or air bubbles sound compared with mechanical strain

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens when air bubbles move through a pump under pressure—what kind of sound would that make? • Which of the options would most likely create a distinct noise versus a loss of efficiency that might be quieter? • Consider which condition is most often associated with a low, rumbling or knocking sound in hydraulic systems.

✅ Before You Answer

• Check which fault is commonly linked with cavitation or aeration in textbooks or manuals • Verify which conditions (leakage, slippage, or strained fluid) usually show up as heat and pressure loss rather than noise • Confirm that the described sound is a low rumble, not a high-pitched whine or squeal, and match that to the common symptom charts for hydraulic pumps
