When should you use counterbalance valves?

July 3, 2024 By Mary Gannon

This sample circuit of a hydraulic hoist (not a real hoist or Raptor), includes a pump, relief valve, DCV, cylinder and a counterbalance valve. (Note: the author created the circuit but AI was used to create the vehicle image.)

By Josh Cosford, Contributing Editor Counterbalance valves are an ingenious invention used to control runaway loads caused by mass or gravity attempting to push or pull outside of intentional movement. There are many ways to control a load or prevent it from moving, such as flow control valves or pilot-operated check valves. However, a counterbalance […]
