Abstract
A pressure control valve for adjusting a controlled pressure supplied to an actuator includes first and second valves. The first valve serves to modify a pressure level of a working fluid supplied from a fluid pressure source to a preselected level and provides it to the actuator. The second valve is responsive to a control signal commanding elevation or reduction in the controlled pressure from a controller to adjust a supply pressure level from the fluid pressure source to provide a pilot pressure, elevated or reduced to a preselected level, to the first valve for activating same. When elevating or reducing the pilot pressure, the second valve decreases the supply pressure level from the fluid pressure source by a preselected degree, for balancing a flow gain when elevating the pilot pressure with that when reducing the pilot pressure, for providing uniform response for elevation and reduction of the controlled pressure to the actuator.
