← TechnologyWhich risk dramatically increases because progressive surface wear degrades the bypass valve's performance within a hydraulic actuator?
A)Reduced system positioning accuracy✓
B)Thermal runaway in the lubricant
C)Increased system bulk compressibility
D)Decreased component fatigue life
💡 Explanation
Reduced positioning accuracy results because increased leakage across a worn valve increases system deadband. Valve Stiction becomes pronounced, therefore precise actuator control suffers, rather than bulk expansion or simple fatigue under rated specifications.
