Description

Oleodinamica Marchesini V0231 (VBPSE 3/8 PS) is a single pilot-operated check valve with a maximum flow rating of 35 l/min and a maximum operating pressure of 350 bar. The original factory table specifies a pilot ratio of 1:12 and a check-valve cracking pressure of 3 bar.

The check section retains the actuator in one direction, with free supply flow and reverse flow released by hydraulic pilot pressure. Connect V1/V2 to the supply, C1 to the free-flow actuator side and C2 to the retained actuator side, following the original schematic.

The supply and actuator connections are 3/8" BSP. Refer to the original drawing for the type-specific port arrangement and dimensions.

The separate-pilot construction is specified as insensitive to back pressure on V2. The manufacturer illustrates use on parallel cylinders together with a sequence valve; that separate circuit valve is not part of this article. The factory lists the body materials as aluminium and steel without assigning each material to a particular body component.

The manufacturer specifies hardened and ground steel internal parts, standard BUNA N seals and a guided-poppet check element with negligible leakage. The original curves use oil at 50 °C and 30 cSt; these are test reference conditions, rather than an operating-temperature or viscosity range. No optional spring, seal or other configuration is generated for this article.

The local PDF retains the complete relevant factory code table, hydraulic schematic, original drawing and curves. Representative manufacturer product image for the VBPSE PS series. Use the exact article drawing in the local PDF to check its connections and mounting arrangement.
