Core Functions

Reliable Load Holding
The Standard Counterbalance Valves help prevent uncontrolled actuator movement by maintaining hydraulic pressure when external loads act on cylinders or motors. This improves system stability and operational safety.

Controlled Load Movement
The non-vented counterbalance valve provides smooth load lowering and movement control by regulating hydraulic flow according to system pressure conditions.

High Pressure Capability
Based on Model XCBCA, the valve supports a maximum setting pressure of 280 bar and a maximum recommended load pressure of 215 bar at maximum setting, making it suitable for demanding hydraulic applications.

Stable Leakage Performance
The hydraulic counterbalance cartridge valve features internal leakage of approximately 5 drops/min, helping maintain pressure stability during load holding operations.

Adjustable Pilot Control
The valve features a pilot ratio of 3:1, providing balanced pilot pressure control for reliable opening and closing performance.

The performance data above are based on Model XCBCA.

FAQ

1. What is a hydraulic counterbalance valve used for?
A hydraulic counterbalance valve is used to control and hold loads in hydraulic systems. It helps prevent uncontrolled movement of cylinders or motors when external forces affect the actuator.

2. Which models are available in this series?
Representative models include XCBCA, XCBEA, XCBGA, and XCBIA. Different models are available for various hydraulic system requirements.

3. Are all models supplied with the same technical specifications?
No. The technical data shown on this page are based on Model XCBCA. Pressure settings, cavity specifications, flow characteristics, and other parameters may vary depending on the selected model.

4. What is the pilot ratio of this counterbalance valve?
The representative model XCBCA uses a 3:1 pilot ratio, providing stable pilot control for load movement and pressure regulation.

5. How can I choose the right Standard Non-Vented Counterbalance Valve model?
Selection depends on operating pressure, load requirements, flow rate, pilot ratio, cavity size, and hydraulic circuit design. The appropriate Standard Counterbalance Valves Non-Vented model should be selected according to the system working conditions.

Ningbo Stars Hydraulic Co., Ltd.

Founded in 2001, Ningbo Stars Hydraulic Co., Ltd. is a hydraulic valve manufacturer that upholds integrity and wins market recognition through superior quality and pragmatic craftsmanship. We introduced hydraulic valve technologies from Germany’s Rexroth and Japan’s Yuken series, and through years of dedicated research, digestion, absorption, modification and optimization, our products stand out in the market. Our valves sell well nationwide and are exported to overseas markets, earning praise and trust from numerous customers at home and abroad. Though compact in size, hydraulic valves deliver critical functions as indispensable core components enabling multi-functional and automatic operation of mechanical equipment. The quality of a hydraulic valve largely determines the overall operating performance of the entire machinery. Supported by national industrial policies, China’s machinery industry is striving to catch up with European and American counterparts to meet booming demands from agriculture, industry, construction, transportation, and land, sea and air defense sectors—this momentum has greatly boosted the domestic hydraulic industry. To embrace the new wave of machinery upgrading, our company has launched a new round of optimization and improvement for our valve products. Building on our existing valve manufacturing technologies and processes, and under the guidance of domestic and international industry experts as well as Taiwanese technical engineers, we have comprehensively upgraded product structures, internal workshop purification and precision of core components. We have implemented effective control over internal stress, thermal deformation, leakage and noise of valves. Every batch of raw materials, auxiliary parts, semi-finished and finished products undergoes rigorous item-by-item inspection. We have also strengthened full-process quality supervision, with zero tolerance for defective products leaving the factory, guaranteeing reliable and long-lasting product performance. Our after-sales service includes timely technical guidance and warranty support, plus follow-up tracking of product operating conditions throughout their service life. Product competition is essentially a contest of technology, workforce dedication, team competence and corporate management. More importantly, it hinges on the founder’s philosophy, integrity and service mindset. There is no end to pursuing premium quality.
