What is an adverse effect of pressure buildup in a hydraulic system?

Pressure buildup in a hydraulic system can lead to piping failures or bursts due to the excessive stress that the increased pressure exerts on the system. Hydraulic systems are designed to operate within specific pressure limits, and when those limits are exceeded, the materials used in the piping and connections may not withstand the force. This can result in leaks, ruptures, or complete failure of the hydraulic components.

On the other hand, improved system efficiency and enhanced fluid flow are typically expected benefits of a well-functioning hydraulic system, not adverse effects. Low operation noises are also generally associated with efficient hydraulic systems rather than a consequence of high pressure. Therefore, the presence of undue pressure within the system is detrimental and can lead to significant operational and safety issues.
