The Vickers CV3-8-P-0-025 is a high-performance, pilot-to-close check valve designed for reliable operation in a wide range of hydraulic systems. As a screw-in cartridge valve, it is engineered for easy installation into standard SAE-8 (C-8-2) cavities, providing a compact and integrated solution for circuit control. This valve allows free flow from port 2 to port 1 while blocking flow in the reverse direction. The check function can be overridden by applying pilot pressure to port 3, which opens the flow path from port 1 to port 2. With a low cracking pressure of 25 PSI, it ensures minimal energy loss and responsive performance, making it ideal for load-holding, blocking, and safety applications in mobile and industrial hydraulic circuits.
