Flow control failure modes

Flow control failure modes

Hi

I am looking for failure modes that would allow more oil than necessary to pass through a flow control valave. So far l have:

  1. The valve/orifice failed open and allows more oil to pass through

  2. The check valve stuck in open position due to contamination or some other reason.

My question: Did l miss anything?

My question applies to both a catridge type and an inline type of flow control valve
