Hydraulic Lift Valve
- Stable pressure hold for single‑acting cylinders, so you keep loads securely at height.
- Controlled lowering via integrated flow control, giving you smooth, predictable descent.
- Emergency manual lowering (needle/button), helping you release safely on power loss
What Is a Hydraulic Lift Valve?
- A hydraulic lift valve manages flow during lift, hold and lowering cycles.
- For single‑acting cylinders, define return-flow control and the required holding behavior.
- HydrathPower reviews lowering control, coil supply and ports for the selected circuit.
- Confirm manual-release behavior and validate the complete load-control circuit before use.
Features
- Stable lift and reliable pressure holding for single‑acting cylinders
- Smooth, load‑consistent lowering via integrated flow control
- Emergency manual lowering (needle valve/button) for safe release
- Compact manifold design to reduce hose runs and leakage points
- Solenoid options: Normally Closed (NC) and Normally Open (NO)
- Wide electrical range for global installations: DC12V / DC24V / AC110V / AC220V
Applications
- Lift table valve solutions for industrial platforms
- Scissor lift valve systems for maintenance and material handling
- Car lift valve controls for automotive service equipment
- Compact HPU integration for mobile and space‑constrained equipment
- OEM and retrofit projects requiring reliable flow and pressure control
How It Works
Lift Up:
The electric motor drives the pump to extend the cylinder.
The check valve and solenoid hold system pressure, keeping the load at height without drift.
Lower Down:
The motor is switched off; the solenoid opens to return oil to tank.
The integrated flow control valve meters descent speed for smooth, safe lowering.
Emergency Operating:
In case of power or pump failure, a manual needle valve/button provides controlled release.
This safety function lets operators unload the system while protecting equipment and personnel.

What does a hydraulic lift valve do?
It directs flow for lift/lower cycles, holds pressure for single‑acting cylinders, and meters lowering speed so descent stays smooth and predictable.
Is it for single‑acting or double‑acting systems?
Most compact lift valves target single‑acting cylinders.
For double‑acting systems, you add directional control to manage both extend and retract safely.
Can I integrate the valve with a compact HPU?
Yes. You confirm pump flow, relief settings, porting, and coil voltage. The compact manifold layout shortens hose runs, lowers pressure loss, and speeds installation.
What’s the difference between NC and NO for safety?
- NC closes the path when de‑energized, helping fail‑safe lowering control on power loss.
- NO can be chosen for special sequences or maintenance logic.
How should I specify an order?
You share cylinder type, target pressure/flow, port size (BSPP 1/4 or 3/8), coil voltage, solenoid type (NC/NO), and ambient conditions.
We return a practical configuration and lead time.
