OM VBPDE 3/8" L DOUBLE PILOT OPERATED CHECK VALVE
V0020 3/8” BSP – Double pilot operated check valve
Product description:
The V0020 type VBPDE 3/8” double pilot operated check valve is designed for safe and reliable locking of hydraulic cylinders in both directions. The valve allows free flow in one direction while blocking flow in the opposite direction until pilot pressure is applied. It is a dependable solution for load holding and position maintaining applications.
Main features:
- Type: VBPDE – double pilot operated check valve
- Code: V0020
- Connections (V1–V2 / C1–C2): G 3/8”
- Maximum flow rate: 35 l/min
- Maximum operating pressure: 350 bar
- Pilot ratio: 1 : 5.5
- Cracking pressure: 3 bar
- Weight: 0.736 kg
Operating Principle
The valve includes two internal check valves, each allowing flow in only one direction, until a pilot pressure signal opens them. When hydraulic pressure is applied to one pilot port (V1 or V2), the corresponding check valve opens, allowing flow in that direction this ensures that pressure is only released intentionally.
This design is especially useful for controlling double-acting cylinders, where movement must be prevented until explicitly commanded. The dual pilot function guarantees safety by avoiding uncontrolled cylinder movement in load-holding applications.
