The Hydraforce HCV16-20-0-U-05 (5203390) is a high-performance, screw-in, cartridge-style hydraulic check valve designed for blocking or load-holding applications in hydraulic systems. This model facilitates flow from port 1 to port 2 while normally blocking flow in the opposite direction. The valve features a fully guided poppet that is spring-biased closed and opens only when sufficient pressure is applied at port 1. It boasts a hardened seat to ensure longevity and minimal leakage, and it offers optional bias springs to provide flexibility for backpressure applications. Rated for high-pressure operations, the HCV16-20-0-U-05 can handle up to 350 bar (5075 psi) standard pressure with proof pressures reaching up to 690 bar (10000 psi), and burst pressures as high as 1380 bar (20000 psi). It supports a maximum flow rate of 151 liters per minute (40 gallons per minute) and demonstrates exceptional durability, tested up to one million cycles. The valve operates efficiently within a fluid temperature range of -40°C to +100°C (-40°F to +212°F) when equipped with standard Buna N seals, with options for fluorocarbon and urethane seals supporting broader temperature ranges. This model is compatible with both mineral-based and synthetic hydraulic fluids with lubricating properties, accommodating a fluid viscosity range from 7.4 to 420 cSt. It maintains performance integrity even in systems with maximum operating contamination levels specified at 18/16/13 per ISO 4406. The internal wetted surface area varies depending on the adapter used, offering customization based on system requirements. Installation specifications include an HVC162 cavity requirement with no orientation restrictions, ensuring versatility in fitting into various system configurations. The valve's robust construction promises reliable performance in critical hydraulic applications without significant maintenance demands.
