Check valves

Check valves are a type of non-return valve. They block the oil flow in one direction and open in the opposite direction. In the closed state they have zero leakage.

Check valves with hydraulic release are a type of check valve. They block one or both hydraulic consumer lines or are used as a hydraulically actuated drain valve or idle circulation valve.

Check valves and pre-fill valves are a type of non-return valve. Check valves block the oil flow in one direction and open in the other direction. Pre-fill valves are check valves with hydraulic release. They are used, e.g. in top ram presses for suction and emptying the press cylinder on rapid closing and opening.

Line rupture protection valves, also called pipe rupture protection valves are a type of check valve. The valves are normally mounted directly on the cylinder. They prevent uncontrolled cylinder movement in the event of a pipe rupture or hose break.
