Abstract
A hydraulic device of a vehicle braking system includes a storage reservoir configured to store brake fluid. The hydraulic device further includes a pump with a suction side configured to set a brake fluid pressure in at least one associated wheel brake. The hydraulic device also includes a line connection interposed between the storage reservoir and the suction side of the pump. In addition, the hydraulic device includes a high-pressure switching valve arranged in the line connection. The high-pressure switching valve is configured to possess an opening pressure of less than 1 bar. Further, the hydraulic device includes at least one brake circuit, and the at least one brake circuit includes the pump, the line connection, and the high-pressure switching valve.
