The Hydraforce CV12-20-12T-N-05 (5202180) is a screw-in, cartridge-style hydraulic check valve designed primarily for use as a blocking or load-holding device in hydraulic systems. This model facilitates fluid flow from port 1 to port 2 while typically blocking the flow in the opposite direction. It incorporates a fully guided check mechanism that remains spring-biased in the closed position until sufficient pressure at port 1 compels it to open towards port 2. Key features of the CV12-20-12T-N-05 include a hardened seat ensuring longevity and minimal leakage, and optional bias springs that provide flexibility for backpressure applications. The valve's design prioritizes durability and efficiency with a cost-effective cavity suitable for various hydraulic applications. The valve operates effectively within a pressure rating of up to 3500 psi (240 bar) and supports an extensive range of operating temperatures depending on the seal material used—from -40°C to +100°C with Buna N seals, -26°C to +204°C with fluorocarbon seals, and -54°C to +107°C with polyurethane seals. It is compatible with mineral-based or synthetic hydraulic fluids having lubricating properties, within a viscosity range of 7.4 to 420 cSt. Installation specifications for this model are straightforward, requiring no specific orientation and accommodating a standard VC122 cavity. It can be torqued between 33 to 37 ft-lb during cartridge installation, with a maximum allowable torque up to 75 ft-lb. The internal wetted surface area is approximately 19.6 square inches, and the unit weight is around 0.38 lb (0.17 kg), making it compact yet robust for industrial applications. Accessories such as seal kits (SK122XT) and various housings are available to ensure optimal integration and functionality across different system configurations.
