Abstract
A pressure compensation unit includes: a control valve controlling hydraulic fluid supply and discharge to and from an actuator, the control valve including a pump port, a pair of relay and supply/discharge ports, and a tank port; a pressure compensation valve connected to the relay ports by an upstream and downstream-side relay lines, the pressure compensation valve moving in accordance with a pressure difference between upstream-side relay line and signal pressure; a load pressure detection line branching from the downstream-side relay line; a relief line connected to the downstream-side relay line and having a relief valve; and a switching valve leading: a maximum load pressure to the pressure compensation valve as the signal pressure when the hydraulic fluid does not flow through the relief line; and a pump pressure to the pressure compensation valve as the signal pressure when the hydraulic fluid flows through the relief line.
