Abstract
A fluid pressure regulating system includes an auxiliary fluid circuit having a high pressure region and a low pressure region, a pump connected to the auxiliary fluid circuit and configured to discharge fluid into the high pressure region of the auxiliary fluid circuit, and a check valve connecting the high pressure region of the auxiliary fluid circuit to a main fluid interface line. The fluid pressure regulating system also includes a pressure regulating valve connecting the high pressure region of the auxiliary fluid circuit and the low pressure region of the auxiliary fluid circuit. The pressure regulating valve includes an aperture defining a fluid path from the high pressure region of the auxiliary fluid circuit to the low pressure region of the auxiliary fluid circuit. The aperture has a variable area as a function of fluid pressure within the main fluid interface line.
