Throughout this site we use many technical terms, and given the breadth of readership our site enjoys, sometimes we are remiss and incorrectly assume everyone knows what we are referring to. For those that do not, here are some explanations of the technical terms use.
Hydropneumatic Suspension
A suspension system in which each wheel assembly is supported on an arm operating a piston in a cylinder containing both air and liquid separated by a diaphragm, the oil content being supplied under control by an engine-driven pump and reservoir. Wheel units are interconnected and both suspension and damping are provided by the enforced movement of the liquid against the compressed air.
