In a nut shell "an open center" system uses valves that allow oil to flow through them at all times, out of the pump and back into the oil reservoir when no actuators are in use,full flow with low pressure, When you move the actuator it will block the flow of oil,and sends it to where it is needed with full flow and full pressure.
A closed center on the other hand will pressure the entire system when no actuators are in use.
this type of system must have a pressure relief to prevent the system from destroying itself when the actuators are not in use.
