Which condition indicates that a proportional valve in a hydraulic control system experiences excessive spool stiction?

💡 Explanation

When spool stiction is excessive, breakaway friction is higher, therefore hysteresis degradation of motion control occurs, leading to increased settling time during step response due to poor responsiveness. Therefore, settling time is increased, rather than elevated pressure, reduced flow, or humming which each occur due to other system failure conditions.
