The single overcenter valves of the VBCL series are designed to ensure the stability in the working position of a hydraulic actuator with suspended load, and to control its movement in only one direction (usually the descent phase), leaving the opposite side powered by free flow; thanks to the BSPP-GAS threaded ports, it can be installed in-line into the hydraulic system. By feeding the line opposite the load, the pilot line manages the partial opening of the descent channel allowing control of the actuator movement and avoiding the phenomenon of cavitation thanks to the action of contrasting the gravitational force.
