Abstract
A decompression valve assembly is normally open thereby allowing thermal pressure build-up in an auxiliary circuit to be dissipated via a bleed path. During operation, the bleed path is sealed by a check valve, whereby high pressure flow can be fully directed to the work tool powered by the auxiliary circuit, for high system efficiency. In addition, a velocity fuse feature limits the rate of flow to the bleed path, thereby to allow for controlled release of pressure from the auxiliary circuit, as is desirable to protect against a rapidly falling load.
