Hydraulic arrangement with load-holding function and hydraulic arrangement control method

A hydraulic arrangement, comprising:

• a hydraulic cylinder;
• a hydraulic pump configured to supply pressure medium to the hydraulic cylinder, the hydraulic pump driven by an electric motor, and the hydraulic pump fluidically connected to a cylinder chamber of the hydraulic cylinder via a pressure medium flow path, one or more shutoff valves are provided in the pressure medium flow path through which the pressure medium flow path is hydraulically disconnected for holding a load of the hydraulic cylinder without drive from the electric motor;
• and
• a control unit for controlling the electric motor and the one or more shutoff valves, wherein the control unit is configured and operable to;
• determine or detect an operating variable of the electric motor upon hydraulic disconnection of the pressure medium flow path, and
• adjust the electric motor to the detected or determined operating variable based on setting a condition at which the pressure medium flow path is opened.
