Product description

Ensuring that hydraulic cylinders remain in their commanded position is a critical safety function, and this Pilot Operated Check Valve is the ultimate safeguard for your lifting equipment. Unlike standard check valves, this pilot-operated version allows for free flow in one direction but requires a separate pressure signal to allow flow in the reverse direction. This is primarily used on 2-post and 4-post automotive lifts to prevent a carriage from descending in the event of a hose failure or valve leak. The precision-machined internal piston responds instantly to pressure changes, providing a reliable lock that holds the load securely until the operator intentionally lowers the lift. This valve is a direct-fit replacement for Snap-On and John Bean hydraulic systems, ensuring that your equipment continues to meet the highest safety certifications and provides peace of mind during every vehicle service.

Product highlights

• Safety Lock Mechanism: Automatically prevents fluid backflow to hold hydraulic loads securely in place.
• Pilot Pressure Release: Allows for controlled descent only when the appropriate hydraulic signal is received.
• Emergency Protection: Essential for preventing 'drift' or sudden carriage drops in the event of system failure.
• High-Pressure Capacity: Engineered to withstand the extreme hydraulic forces generated by heavy vehicle lifts.
• Precision Machined: Internal components are finished to tight tolerances for leak-free, reliable operation.
