← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when contaminants block a hydraulic actuator's servovalve?
A)Increased actuator response deadband✓
B)Reduced fluid bulk modulus
C)Higher system damping ratio
D)Decreased controller steady-state error
💡 Explanation
A blocked servovalve causes increased deadband because it restricts fluid flow to the actuator, therefore the actuator requires a larger input signal change to initiate movement, rather than maintaining precision control with small signal changes.
