Summary: | A feed pump supplies a fluid through a filter to a main pump which pumps the fluid in filtered condition to a consumer. When the filter becomes clogged, a valve responsive to the increased pressure differential upstream and downstream of the clogged filter, supplies fluid for operating either a control valve connecting the outlet and inlet of the main pump and causing idle circulation of the fluid, or a hydraulic regulating means for setting the main pump to a minimum discharge. |
