← TechnologyFor a swashplate axial piston pump controlling crane boom lift, which consequence results when debris contaminates the proportional control valve?
A)Unintended boom descent occurs✓
B)Reduced pump volumetric efficiency
C)Elevated hydraulic fluid temperature
D)Increased pump cavitation vulnerability
💡 Explanation
Contamination prevents spool movement within the valve controlling fluid flow to the lift cylinder, leading to uncontrolled descent because internal leakage dumps pressure; therefore boom lowering happens rather than stable positioning. Back pressure check valves also fail.
