“Draw a 24 V hydraulic power-unit control circuit with a fuse, start and stop pushbuttons, a pump motor contactor with a seal-in contact, and a pressure switch that operates a low-pressure lamp.”
Read the decisions behind it.
Momentary start and normally closed stop commands control the contactor.
The auxiliary contact keeps the motor contactor energized after start is released.
A pressure-switch input drives a visible low-pressure warning.
Use for a basic power-pack control concept before adding overload protection, a motor starter, and plant safety interlocks.

Common questions
What is a hydraulic power unit?
It is the pump, motor, reservoir, and related controls that supply pressurized fluid to a hydraulic machine.
What is a seal-in contact?
It is an auxiliary contact that keeps a relay or contactor energized after a momentary start button is released.
Why use a pressure switch?
It changes state at a set fluid pressure and can provide an alarm, permissive, or control signal.
