FUNCTION OF SURFACE AREA RATIO OF PRESSURE COMPENSATION VALVE
OF CONTROL VALVE
The dividing condition varies with the surface area ratio of (A1) and (A2) for the pressure compensation.
Surface area ratio = (A2)/(A1)
When the surface area ratio is 1, the spool meter-in downstream pressure is equal to the maximum load
pressure, and oil flows corresponding with the opening area ratio.
When the surface area ratio is larger than 1, the spool meter-in downstream pressure is higher than the
maximum load pressure, and the oil flow is divided less than the surface area ratio.
When the surface area ratio is smaller than 1, the spool meter-in downstream pressure is lower than the
maximum load pressure, and the oil flow is divided more than the surface area ratio.
