Power Steering Pump: Description and Operation
General Description
P/S Pump Construction
The power steering pump is a vane type and is driven by the V-ribbed belt from the crankshaft.
Flow Control Valve
As the discharge rate of the P/S pump increases in proportion to the pump revolution speed, a flow control valve is added to control it so that the
optimum amount of fluid for steering operation is supplied according to the engine speed (driving condition).
