Product catalog summary
Overview: The document describes the MK type throttle/check valves, which are designed to control fluid flow rate in one direction while allowing free flow in the opposite direction. These valves are suitable for hydraulic systems where constant working resistance is present or speed changes under varying loads are not critical. They are mounted directly in-line using couplings.
Description of Operation: In the throttle direction, fluid reaches the rear side of the check valve poppet, which is held in place by a spring. The fluid flows through side bores to a variable orifice, where throttling occurs. In the opposite direction, the poppet lifts, allowing free fluid flow and self-cleaning through a ring slot.
Technical Data: The valves use mineral oil as hydraulic fluid, with recommended filtration up to 10 µm. The nominal fluid viscosity is 37 mm²/s at 55°C, with a range of 2.8 to 380 mm²/s. The fluid temperature range is -20°C to +70°C, and the maximum operating pressure is 31.5 MPa. The cracking pressure is 0.05 MPa.
Overall Dimensions: The document provides dimensions for various sizes (6 to 30), including diameter, length, and weight specifications.
Performance Curves: Graphs illustrate the pressure drop (Δp) versus flow rate (Q) for different valve sizes, showing performance with open and closed throttle/check valves.
Ordering Information: The document includes a coding system for ordering valves, specifying mounting type, series number, sealing type, and nominal size. Preferred versions are highlighted for quick delivery.

THROTTLE/CHECK VALVE TYPE MK Size 6 through 30 up to 31,5 MPa up to 400dm 3 /min APPLICATION Valves type MK are throttle / check valves in which flow is dependent on temperature and pressure drop at the throttle point. They are designed to control the fluid flow rate in one direction and allow free slow in the opposite direction. The valves may be used in hydraulic systems, when working resistance is constant or change in speed at changing load is of no importance. The valves are for direct in-line mounting in any position by means of couplings. When there is a flow in throttle direction, fluid reaches the rear side of the poppet 3 of the check valve which is pushed onto its seat in the housing 2 by the spring 6. The fluid flows to the variable orifice 4 through the side bores in the poppet 3. Throttling takes place between the housing 2 and adjustable sleeve 1. With flow in the opposite direction, the fluid acts on the face surface of the poppet 3. The poppet 3 is lifted from its seat and the fluid flows freely through the valve. Simultaneously, part of the fluid getting through the ring slot 5 creates the desired effect as its self-cleaning. Caution : hold The valve install in hydraulic system to take hold on 2. hexagon of housing item 2. 1. It isn’t to allow for turn up the valve by nut item 1. Do not adjust under pressure.
