Product catalog summary
Materials and Specifications
The product is constructed using various stainless steel materials, including 304 CRES and 15-5 PH CRES, ensuring durability and longevity. Key components such as the body, poppet, springs, and pilot piston are made from these materials, adhering to specific AMS standards.

Performance Characteristics
The High Pressure 500 Pilot Operated Chek valve is designed for system pressures up to 5000 psi. It features a cracking pressure of 5 ± 3 psid and a minimum pilot ratio of 3:1. The piloted flow rate is capped at 60 Lohms, with maximum leakage rates specified for different pressure conditions. The valve weighs 49 grams and is endurance tested to 500,000 cycles.

Product Features
This valve functions as a standard check valve until pressure is applied to the pilot port, allowing flow in the normally blocked direction. It is suitable for high-pressure hydraulic applications and is available in both forward and reverse flow configurations. Each unit is thoroughly tested and inspected for consistent performance.

Lohms Laws and Liquid Flow
The document introduces the concept of Lohms, a unit of fluid resistance analogous to Ohms in electricity. Lohms simplify hydraulic computations by compensating for discharge coefficients and dimensional tolerances. The document provides formulas for calculating flow rates, incorporating factors for liquid density and viscosity. A units constant (K) is used to standardize pressure and flow parameters.

Flow Units and Pressure Units
Tables are provided to convert between different volumetric and gravimetric flow units, with corresponding pressure units in psi, bar, and kPa. These conversions facilitate the application of Lohm laws across various liquids and operating conditions.

HIGH PRESSURE 500 PILOT OPERATED CHEK-1

PRECISION MICROHYDRAULICS PRODUCT HIGH PRESSURE 500 PILOT OPERATED CHEK® The Lee Company’s new High Pressure 500 Pilot Operated Chek is the latest addition to Lee’s line of miniature check valves. This valve acts like a normal check valve until pressure is applied to the pilot port, which then allows flow in the direction that would normally be blocked. This new valve is ideal for high pressure hydraulic applications with system pressures up to 5000 psi. The maximum restriction when piloted open is only 60 Lohms. The High Pressure 500 Pilot Operated Chek is available in forward and reverse free flow configurations, and the metal components are constructed entirely of stainless steel for durability and long life. Nominal weight is just 49 grams. Each Chek is 100% tested and inspected to ensure reliable, consistent performance. Designed for System Pressures up to 5000 psi 60 Lohms maximum when Piloted Open Weighs Only 49 grams 100% Tested and Inspected Endurance Tested to 500,000 Cycles The Lee Company • 2 Pettipaug Road, PO Box 424, Westbrook, Connecticut 06498-0424 Tel: 860-399-6281 • Fax: 860-399-7037 • [email protected] • www.theleeco.com PDS 144 5/17

LOHMS LAWS (liquids) Every engineer will be interested in our simple system of defining the fluid resistance of Lee hydraulic components. Just as the OHM is used in the electrical industry, we find that we can use a liquid OHM or "Lohm" to good advantage on all hydraulic computations. When using the Lohm system, you can forget about coefficients of discharge and dimensional tolerances on drilled holes. These factors are automatically compensated for in the Lohm calculations, and confirmed by testing each component to establish flow tolerances. The resistance to flow of any fluid control component...
