← TechnologyWhich critical threshold causes erratic movement when proportional valve regulated hydraulic actuator reaches high frequency oscillation?
A)Amplifier saturation current limit
B)Spool valve flow saturation limit
C)Actuator resonant frequency limit✓
D)Hydraulic power supply pressure limit
💡 Explanation
When the actuator frequency nears its mechanical resonance, amplification occurs due to positive mechanical feedback causing erratic motion. Therefore the resonance frequency limit causes error rather than amplifier, saturation, or pressure limits which do not induce sustained oscillations, although they are also limits.
