Abstract
A pressure compensated pump which supplies fluid to a common header has an automatic pressure compensator adjustment mechanism which adjusts the pressure setting of the pressure compensator in response to changes in the displacement of the pump, such that the compensator pressure setting of the pump is reduced when the displacement of the pump increases to increase pump flow and the pressure setting is increased when the displacement of the pump decreases to reduce pump flow.
