PCV16 Check, Pilot-to-Open (PCV16)
An in-line-housed, pilot-operated, hydraulic check valve for use in blocking or load-holding circuits.
Product Operation
The PCV16 allows flow from B to A, while normally blocking flow from A to B. Flow will
be allowed from A to B when pressure is applied at X.
The check valve has a 3.8:1 pilot ratio, meaning that at least one-fourth of the load
pressure held at A is required at X to open the valve.
The check is spring-biased at 1.7 bar (25 psi) to assure holding in static or no-load
conditions. A sealed pilot piston option is available.
Product Features
• Hardened seat for long life and low leakage.
• Optional sealed pilot piston.• Optional spring ranges.
• Check section is serviceable as a cartridge.
