← TechnologyWhich action must occur when a proportional valve experiences significant hysteresis within a hydraulic control system?
A)Feed-forward gain from input signal✓
B)Derivative gain on error feedback
C)Integral gain on error feedback
D)Pressure feedback from output to inlet
💡 Explanation
When a proportional valve demonstrates hysteresis, the intended output does not directly correspond to the input signal because the mechanical resistance creates variable signal lag, requiring feed-forward compensation. Therefore feed-forward gain from the input assists the output, rather than derivative, integral or pressure changes, which respond more to errors.
