One thing to note, when the three point hitch and other valves in a open center hydraulic system are in the neutral position, the pressure in the system is very low, 300PSI to 500PSI in a cold system at high idle in the winter, 75PSI to 150PSI on a hot system at idle in the summer.. Your 3ph valve diverts pressurized flow it does not create pressure nor flow. When not diverted to raise the implement the pressurized flow goes to the reservoir.
The pressure does not build to the rated 1500PSI-3000PSI until it encounters resistance such as when you tell it to lift the 3 point hitch and it has to lift the weight of the impliment.
As such, it could be argued that the resistance created by the three-point hitch creates the pressure.
