Hydrostatic Transmission with Shuttle Valve

This example shows a hydrostatic transmission with a shuttle valve in the control unit. The 4-way directional valve that controls the motor is actuated by a valve actuator whose input is controlled by two 2-position valves (Shuttle A Valve, Shuttle A1 Valve). The shuttle valve installed between the actuator and the 2-position valves allows the 4-way directional valve to be opened by opening either 2-position valve, and those valves are opened by signals S1 and S2. A fixed orifice is connected to the P port of the two-position valves to decrease flow consumption of the control circuit. Another fixed orifice introduces a small leak from the valve control chamber to avoid this chamber being isolated from the main flow. The motor is connected to pressure line at 1 second and 5 seconds by activating each of the two-position valves.
