So that means the regulated pressure is all that controls the opening?
Yes, I believe so.
What I do not get, is say I'm at 60psi boost, 70 psi drive. If i feed the bottom 60psi. And the top 50psi thats basically like adding a 10 psi spring under the diaphragm to help it overcome the 7psi spring. Dosnt that just mean that the gate is going to open really early? I work with hydraulics all day and for some reason I cant wrap my head around this one
The spring is just there to help with the differential between the boost pressure and drive pressure I believe. You may need a slightly stiffer spring also.
I'm not 100% sure it works like this, but I'm 80% sure.
EDIT: But actually maybe I have it backwards..... regulated on bottom, full on top....hmmmm now you got me thinking.
Full on top plus spring pressure to conteract the drive pressure, then add a little regulated on bottom when you want it to start to open. Yeah I think that makes more since
