The Hydraforce HCV12-20-0-U-05 (5202110) is a high-performance hydraulic check valve designed for blocking or load-holding applications in hydraulic systems. This screw-in, cartridge-style valve facilitates flow from port 1 to port 2 while normally preventing flow in the opposite direction. The operation of the HCV12-20-0-U-05 relies on a fully guided poppet that remains spring-biased closed until sufficient pressure at port 1 compels it to open towards port 2. Key features of this valve include a hardened seat that ensures long life and minimal leakage, enhancing system reliability. The optional bias springs provide flexibility for backpressure applications, allowing for customization based on specific system requirements. Its design includes a cost-effective cavity suitable for various hydraulic setups. The HCV12-20-0-U-05 can handle high-pressure conditions with ratings up to 350 bar (5075 psi) and a burst pressure of 1380 bar (20000 psi). It supports flow rates up to 95 lpm (25 gpm) with maximum internal leakage maintained at minimal levels, ensuring efficient operation. The valve is compatible with mineral-based or synthetic hydraulic fluids and operates effectively within a broad temperature range, depending on the seal material used—from -40°C to +100°C with standard Buna N seals, and wider ranges with fluorocarbon or urethane seals. This check valve is robustly constructed to withstand up to one million cycles, demonstrating its durability and suitability for demanding applications. Installation specifications are straightforward, requiring no orientation restrictions and accommodating various cavity options including steel/ductile iron and aluminum cavities. Accessories such as different seal kits are available to ensure maintenance and compatibility with diverse operating environments.
