Which risk increases when hydraulic actuator's proportional control valve experiences stiction?

A)Overshoot leading to system oscillation
B)Increased energy efficiency during idle
C)Reduced sensitivity to input commands
D)Decreased wear on pump components

💡 Explanation

When stiction occurs in a hydraulic actuator's valve, motion becomes jerky because the valve sticks then suddenly jumps, causing the actuator to overshoot the target position, resulting in oscillations. Therefore, overshoot increases, rather than energy efficiency, reduced sensitivity, or decreased pump wear, which require smoother control.
