Pump Compensator and Main Relief Valve Adjustment Demonstration
Posted by Admin
One of the most common, hydraulic systems issues we help our customers troubleshoot is hydraulic systems running too hot. More often than not, this is due to having a pressure-compensated pump and the fluid being dumped over the relief rather than over the compensator- creating heat.
To learn more, watch this follow-up video (part 2 of Hydraulic system running too hot?) of John Henry Foster's hydraulic guru, David Granade- Fluid Power Specialist, as he demonstrates how adjustments on the pump compensator and main relief valve, can help.
