Abstract:
A hydraulic system for a motor vehicle having at least one tank for hydraulic medium and having first and second operational areas, comprising:a distributor valve (14) comprising a flow regulator valve (32) and a solenoid valve (33);a clutch valve (16) connected to said distributor valve (14), said clutch valve (16) controlling the flow of hydraulic medium to said second operational area (2, 17) such that said first operational area (1) has priority over said second operational area (2, 17);wherein the solenoid valve (33) closes a supply of hydraulic medium to said clutch valve (16) of said second operational area (2, 17) when the first operational area (1) is operating, said solenoid valve (33) being adapted to release a small amount of hydraulic medium to the clutch valve (16) of said operational area (2, 17) during operation of said first operational area (1) if hydraulic fluid is required by said second operational area (2, 17).
