Pilot check valves allow flow to pass in one direction, with a low pressure drop, then prevent reverse flow until pilot pressure is applied. 

There are many applications for this valve type, the most common being to lock and hold a cylinder, or another hydraulic actuator, in position. 

The IPC-08 is a small cartridge valve and is ideally suited for fitting directly into a cylinder, giving economy of installation, direct control of movement.

The oil flow is permitted from port 2 to port 3 and stopped in the opposite direction. 

A free oil flow from port 3 to port 2 is strictly possible when the pilot pressure in port 1 is enough to release the valve poppet. 

The minimum release pressure can be figured by diving pressure valve in port 1 by the pilot ratio. 

To assure best valve performance from port 3 to port 2, make sure that no counter pressure arises in port 2.
