Hydraulically pilot operated cartridge check valves RHC and RHCE without and with hydraulic pre-relief Pressure p max = 700 bar Flow Q max = 0 lpm Symbols RHC RHCE 1. General These devices are designed as seated valves and belong to the group of stop valves according to ISO -1. Flow is blocked in the direction A d B and possible in the direction B d A. The closed passage, flow direction A d B, can be opened (released) by hydraulic control. Application o Blockage of zero-leakage cylinders when used together with leakage prone directional spool valves o Return relief for directional valves during retraction of double acting cylinders o as a hydraulically operated drain or circulation valve The valve housings are designed as screw-in cartridges. These valves are to be screwed into simply shaped tapped holes of a manifold body. The sealing of the consumer side A and B is via an O-ring and takes place at the contact area between the stepped valve body and the stepped shoulder of the core diameter at the location thread. Any standard steel drill (point angle ) automatically forms this stepped shoulder when the core diameter is drilled. Therefore reaming of the hole and bevels to help the seals slip in are not necessary. The control side Z is generally sufficiently sealed to the consumer side B via an appropriate thread tolerances of valve screw and core hole (see table with dimensions). There are versions with sealed thread and control piston available if this (minimum) leakage is disturbing. Another version features a control piston relief where a an additional leakage port is apparent. This enables opening without any damping via the pressure apparent at port A (see examples in sect. 5). The following schematic illustrations show the design and a typical installation example where the mounting hole is blocked to the outside with a tapped plug (conf. DIN 90 or 9) and seal ring (conf. DIN 7603). Versions o Valves without a pre-relief (type RHC..) The valve element is a ball. These valves allow full flow through the complete cross section A d B once they are released. The rate of operation of the piston is moderated. Abrupt opening and possible resultant relief shocks are substantially avoided. If shocks do occur during the trial run, however, an auxiliary restrictor must be provided in the control oil inlet, or a valve with a pre-relieving system must be used. o Valves with a pre-relieving system (type RHC..V) The valve component is a spherically ground piston (ball seat) with a built-in ball check valve which opens during valve relief prior to the main piston, thereby releasing a restrictor cross section for the shock-free relief, of the consumer capacities. They are used predominantly for high operating pressures and for large consumer capacities. An auxiliary restrictor in the control oil inlet amplifies the efficacy of the pre-relieving feature. Additional sealing of the control pressure side 2.5 o Valves with control piston relief (type RHCE..) Available with/without pre-relief (see above). The opening pressure is rather independent from the return pressure (p B ) with this version. This is possible because of the additional control piston relief via leakage port L.
