Large machines are mostly used for digging and loading, where emphasis is placed on power and speed. Furthermore, fuel consumption is a major concern for the large machine owner. As a result, OLSS is used because it meets both the power/speed and efficiency needs. In addition, the OLSS hydraulic system has a long history of dependability in this market.

Benefits of Pressure Compensation ValveAutomatically balances the system Automatically balances the system flow when using several functions at flow when using several functions at one time.one time.
– The operator does not compensate The operator does not compensate for the machine, rather the machine for the machine, rather the machine automatically compensates itself.automatically compensates itself.
– Reduces operating effort and Reduces operating effort and operator fatigue thus increasing operator fatigue thus increasing productivity.productivity.

Exclusively HydrauMindPressure
Compensating ValveAutomatically adjusts pressure between circuits being used, to control loads.
LS (Load Sensing) Valve
Tells the pump when to stroke and destroke to maintain a constant differential pressure between pump side and actuator side of the control valve. Signals servo valve to change pump displacement.
LS EPC ValveEnhances fuel efficiency by receiving signals from the governor and pump controller and then sending a proportional signal to the LS Valve.
Pump Merge/Divide Valve
Improves cycle time and fuel efficiently by merging or separating the 2 pump flow. Divided for travel, fine control, and boom up when swinging.
LS Select ValveIncreases ease of operation when using swing with the work equipment. Prevents the high LS pressure of the swing circuit from affecting other LS Circuits.
LS Bypass ValveImproves dynamic stability during operation by relieving residual pressure in the LS circuit.
This is a representative drawing of a Komatsu Hydraulic system.
