Schematic overview and setpoint values

The maximum pressure in the high-pressure range is restricted to 245 bar. if such a high pressure arises, the high-pressure circuit is relaxed to the low-pressure range by a pressure limiting valve. The pressure change does not cause a change in the fuel volume. The resulting pressure peak is compensated for by the low-pressure damper when entering the low-pressure range.
