PILOT OPERATED CHECK VALVE
Overview
Symbol
Description
The PC10-34 is a screw-in, cartridge style, pilot operated, hydraulic
check valve
Operation
The cartridge valve allows free flow from ports 2 to 3, while normally
blocking flow from ports 3 to 2. Flow will be allowed from ports 3 to 2
when pressure is applied at port 1
Features
Higher pilot ratio reduces valve "chatter" in low flow applications.
Choice of several bias spring values.
Hardened seat for long life and low leakage.
Optional sealed piston.
Industry common cavity.
