DC10-40 Pilot Operated Check Valve (DC10-40)

A dual pilot operated check valve for use in blocking or load-holding circuits. This valve has an optional thermal relief from port 4 to port 3.

Product Operation

The DC10-40 will block flow from 1 to 2, and from 4 to 3. Flow is allowed in the opposite direction when pressure is applied to port 2 and/or port 3.
The valve has a 3:1 pilot ratio, so at least 1/3 of the load pressure at port 1 or 4 is required at the pilot lines (ports 2 or 3) to open the flow passage to allow flow from ports 1 or 4.
The check is spring-biased at 25 psi to assure holding in a static or no load condition.
Note: Orifice disc cannot be used with this product.

Product Features

• Hardened seat for long life and low leakage.
• Low pressure drop.
 Optional thermal relief.
