TECHNICAL FEATURES
This 3 port pilot-to-open check valve and 3 port counterbalance valves are physically interchangeable (i.e. same cavities, same flow path for a given frame size).
However, cartridge extension dimensions from the mounting surface may vary.
For models with manual load release control option, turn load release clockwise to release load.
Provides hose break protection, prevents loads from drifting and positively locks pressurized loads.
Extremely low leakage. The seat and poppet are heat treated for long life. If the load drifts due to the valve, the seat has probably been damaged by contamination
and the valve should be replaced.
Sealed pilot for use in circuits where cross port leakage is undesirable.
Optional external porting out of the hex end of the cartridge is available for external piloting. In this configuration, port 3 is blocked. See Control options E, and P.
Pilot-to-open check cartridges are locking valves, not motion control valves. For motion control applications, use counterbalance valves.
Corrosion resistant cartridge valves are intended for use in corrosive environments and are identified by the model code suffix /AP for external stainless steel
components, or /LH for external zinc-nickel plated components. See the CONFIGURATION section for all options. For further details, please see the Materials of
Construction page located under TECH RESOURCES.
Incorporates the Sun floating style construction to minimize the possibility of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque and/or cavity/cartridge
machining variations.
