Conservation of Power for an Elevating Scraper Hydraulic System 690367
A systems approach towards reducing power losses includes: 1) a flow sensitive hydraulic detent release which automatically returns a control valve to neutral when the cylinder reaches the end of its stroke; 2) a two pump steering system that provides a power savings during small corrections by discharging the large pump flow at low pressure; and 3) the secondary application for a pump in order to avoid increased total system delivery.
