4CK120 Check Valve - Pilot-to-open, poppet type

4CK120 - Check valve

Pilot-to-open, poppet type 120 L/min (32 USgpm) • 350 bar (5000 psi)

Description

Pilot check valves allow flow to pass in one direction, with a low pressure drop, then prevent reverse flow until pilot pressure is applied. There are many applications for this valve type, the most common being to lock and hold a cylinder, or another hydraulic actuator, in position. These valves are ideally suited for fitting directly into a cylinder, giving economy of installation, direct control of cylinder movement and ease of servicing.

Operation

Pressure on the valve port 2 causes the poppet to lift against the spring force, allowing the flow to the cylinder port 1. Reverse flow is prevented by the poppet reseating. Pressure applied to the pilot port 3 will overcome the cylinder port pressure and lift the poppet from its seat, allowing flow from the cylinder to valve port.

Features

Hardened and ground poppet gives excellent flow capability for valve size, positive sealing and long working life. Cartridge construction allows installation in actuators, manifold blocks and Hydraulic Integrated Circuits. Fits the same cavity as the overcenter valves of a similar size.
