The Hydraforce DC10-40-0-N-25 (5230010) is a dual pilot operated check valve, designed specifically for blocking or load holding circuits utilizing general purpose hydraulic fluids. This cartridge-style valve features an optional thermal relief from port 4 to 3, ensuring operational safety and efficiency under varying thermal conditions. It boasts a hardened seat which guarantees long life and minimal leakage, complemented by a low pressure drop across the valve. The valve operates efficiently with a pressure rating of up to 3500 psi and can handle thermal relief crack pressures ranging from 4500 to 5600 psi. Its pilot ratio stands at 3:1, making it reliable for various hydraulic applications. The DC10-40-0-N-25 supports flow rates up to 16 gallons per minute and demonstrates maximum internal leakage of merely 5 drops per minute at 3000 psi, ensuring precision and minimal fluid loss. Suitable for a wide range of temperatures, it operates effectively with fluid temperatures from -15°C to +204°C depending on the seal material used—Buna N, Fluorocarbon, or Polyurethane. Its robust design is further enhanced by corrosion protection that withstands up to 960 hours of salt spray per ASTM B117 standards. Installation flexibility is highlighted by its compatibility with VC104 cavity configurations and no orientation restrictions. The unit weighs approximately 0.30 lb and can be installed with a torque ranging from 24 to 26 ft-lb. For maintenance and customization, seal kits available include Buna N, Fluorocarbon, or Polyurethane options along with installation instructions. Overall, the Hydraforce DC10-40-0-N-25 offers robust performance for hydraulic systems requiring reliable load holding and blocking capabilities along with optional thermal relief for enhanced system safety and longevity.
