  • Such a valve is off, for example WO 2011/045063 A1 known and is used to adapt the fluid flow and the supply pressure to the needs of the at least one hydraulic consumer.
  • the Load pressure with several hydraulic consumers the highest load pressure, reported back to the valve and taken into account in the pressure control to the effect that a so-called pressureless circulation is set at a load pressure close to or equal to the discharge pressure via the relief stage. If supply pressure is required by the hydraulic consumer and the load pressure rises accordingly, the relief stage is closed again and the pilot control and main control stage assume their respective control positions. In this way, the power loss in the hydraulic system for supplying pressure to the at least one hydraulic consumer can be reduced.
  • the present invention aims to simplify the structure of the valve and to make the valve accessible to further functions. This object is achieved by a valve with the features of claim 1 in its entirety.
