JJ, a closed center flow and pressure compensated system (aka load sensing system) doesn't go over relief when oil is dead headed, the pump goes into high pressure standby and pumps just enough oil to put maximum pressure on the system. You are correct that these pumps are not designed to run constantly in high pressure standby, and doing so will damage the pump.
Thank you for the clarification- it’s been awhile since I’ve actually used that terminology. I stand corrected
I do however remember driving to the middle of nowhere Montana, and replacing a hydraulic pump on a 7110 that had the wrong loader valve plumbed into it. What a mess that was! Can still smell the burnt Hy-Tran! |
