1. DESCRIPTION
1.1. GENERAL
HYDAC RV5E valves belong to
the group of check valves. In
accordance with DIN ISO 1219
these are valves for oil hydraulic
systems which allow flow in only
one direction while the other is
shut off.
Important advantages are:
• Standardised installation
dimensions mean that they are
flexible and suited to many
different applications.
• Their compact design provides
space--saving installation in
connection housings, control
blocks, etc. especially where the
installation space is confined.
• Simple assembly due to
service--friendly cartridge valve
technology.
• A wide range of connection
housings is available for optimum
mounting for a multitude of
applications.
1.2. FUNCTION
HYDAC RV5E check valves are
spring--loaded cone seat valves
for oil hydraulic systems.
The valve consists basically of a
valve body with a built--in valve
seat, a hardened, polished
closing cone and the spring.
When there is no flow through the
valve the spring keeps the closing
cone in the closed position. The
valve opens when the pressure
across port 1 is higher than the
pressure across port 2, including
the cracking pressure created by
the spring force. In the check
direction the closing cone is
pressed against the seat and
shuts off port 2 from port 1.
1.3. APPLICATIONS
HYDAC RV5E check valves are
used:
• where the flow must be prevented
from flowing back and a
leakage--free shut--off is required,
• as suction and pressure valves,
• as bypass valves, e.g. to protect
filter elements from damage,
• in HYDAC shut--off blocks,
• as a bridge rectifier circuit when
used with HYDAC flow control
valves or pressure relief valves.
Preferred areas of application
are:
• mobile hydraulics
• clamping hydraulics
• loading ramps
• conveyor belts
• system engineering
• handling devices
1.4. NOTE
• when fitting the valves into control
blocks and housings the
recommended torque must be
observed (see point 3)!
• the cracking pressure of the valve
increases by the amount of
pressure across port 2!
