Abstract

A method of operating a hydraulic system including providing
a hydraulic pump (32,232,332) having a pump outlet,
a main orifice (43,243A,243B) having a main orifice inlet in fluid communication with the pump outlet and a main orifice outlet for supplying pressurised fluid to a service,
a flow orifice (44,244,344) having a flow orifice inlet for sensing a pressure representative of a pressure at the pump outlet and a flow orifice outlet,
an amplification orifice (45,245,345) having an amplification orifice inlet in fluid communication with the flow orifice outlet and an amplification orifice outlet for sensing a pressure representative of a pressure at a service,
means (63,263,363) for generating an output signal representative of a fluid pressure between the flow orifice outlet and the amplification orifice inlet,
and a pump controller (64,270,395) for controlling the hydraulic pump in response to the output signal,
the flow orifice defining a flow orifice cross section area and
the amplification orifice defining an amplification orifice cross section area,
the flow orifice cross section area and the amplification orifice cross section area defining a ratio,
in which the main orifice is variable and the ratio is variable,
the method further comprising the steps of operating the system in a first mode so as to define a first mode ratio and operating the system in a second mode so as to define a second mode ratio,
so that the ratio is controlled differently in the first mode and the second mode.
