Abstract
Systems and methods for electrohydraulic valve calibration are provided. In one aspect, a calibration circuit includes a calibration conduit isolated from a supply conduit, a first calibration orifice configured to provide fluid communication between the calibration conduit and a fluid source, and a second calibration orifice arranged in series with the first calibration orifice. The second calibration orifice is on a spool of a electrohydraulic control valve and is configured to selectively provide fluid communication between the calibration conduit and a low pressure source. The calibration circuit further includes a pressure sensor configured to measure a pressure in the calibration conduit between the first calibration orifice and the second calibration orifice. The second calibration orifice is isolated from the at least one workport of the electrohydraulic control valve.
