According to the parent patent on inadequate power of the delivery pump the flow rate set at the directional control valves for the consumers is reduced in equal proportions in that electrical signals proportional to the flow rates are supplied to a summation stage and the sum voltage is compared in a comparison stage with a limit value corresponding to the maximum pump delivery flow. When the limit value is exceeded a control signal is generated with which the stroke of all the driven directional control valves can be jointly reduced. According to the application of addition the signal voltage supplied to the summation stages and corresponding to the respective flow rate can be obtained in a displacement pickup associated with each directional control valve or in a pressure pickup measuring the pilot pressure if the directional control valves are not controlled electrically but hydraulically. Furthermore, the pilot pressure can also be generated by a valve arrangement which switches in pulsating manner and to the regulator of which the control signal is supplied when the limit value is exceeded.

Control arrangement for at least two hydraulic consumers fed by at least

Proportional magnet having a housing in which an armature bar is mounted which is movable under the influence of an armature winding arranged in the housing, wherein a hydraulic unit serving to operate the armature bar is additionally provided.
