Lab 9 - Hydraulic Check Valve Applications (Intermediate LAP 4)

Introduction:

The check valve is one of the few commonly used hydraulic valves that virtually does not leak. This LAP will discuss how to apply the simple check valve to prevent cylinder relaxation during momentary drops in pressure. It will also explain how to apply a special kind of check valve, called the pilot-operated check valve, to hold loads in place over a long periods of time, even when hydraulic power is shut off.
