Which risk increases when a check valve opens too rapidly in a hydraulic pump?

💡 Explanation

Pump cavitation increases because rapid valve opening causes sudden pressure drops leading to vapor bubble formation in the oil due to boiling; therefore, cavitation damages the pump parts rather than causing expansion, stiction or reducing actuator precision.
