← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when a pneumatic directional valve experiences pilot pressure loss?
A)Valve spool shifts to default position✓
B)Increased actuator holding torque results
C)Flow rate through valve increases
D)Valve seals experience extreme temperatures
💡 Explanation
Pilot pressure loss causes the valve spool to shift to its default position due to spring force overcoming reduced pilot pressure; this is spring return mechanism, therefore the valve defaults, rather than increased torque or flow, because those rely on pressure.
