Abstract
A system includes a flow inlet conduit and a primary conduit that branches from the flow inlet conduit for delivering flow to a set of primary nozzles. An equalization bypass valve (EBV) connects between the flow inlet conduit and a secondary conduit for delivering flow to a set of secondary nozzles. The EBV is connected to an equalization conduit (EC) to apportion flow from the flow inlet conduit to the secondary conduit. A pressure equalization solenoid (PES) is connected to the EC to selectively connect at least one of a servo supply pressure (PFA) conduit or return pressure (PDF) conduit into fluid communication with the EC. A relief management valve (RMV) is connected in the PDF conduit.
