More Information
Summary:A hydraulic system includes a hydraulic circuit with a hydraulic component. A sensor is provided for sensing a characteristic of the hydraulic component. An energy harvester is configured to harvest energy from the hydraulic circuit. An energy combiner receives power outputs from the energy harvester and a battery, and is configured to selectively power the sensor from at least one of the battery and the energy harvester in response to a predetermined condition.
