3/8" NPTF Swivel-Mounted Counterbalance Valve w/ 1/8" Outlet and Flush Manual Release


NGT’s B6SCFM-12 is a swivel-mounted pneumatic counterbalance valve that will hold a load in position until pressure or force is applied to move the load. This valve mounts directly to a pneumatic cylinder with a male outlet. The B6SCFM-12 has 3/8 NPTF female inlet, 1/8 NPTF male outlet, and a blocked pilot port. It has standard temperature seals and a flush manual release.
  • Male outlet ports on swivel valves enable direct mounting to cylinders
  • NGT’s PO checks can be used in any pneumatic application where a sudden drop in pressure would harm personnel, damage products, or otherwise hinder the manufacturing process
  • Typical applications of PO checks are clamping, work holding, & lifting equipment, doors, platforms, and material
  • Air tight design means little to no leaking. Design tightens with increased pressure
  • All aluminum o-ring grooves and faces are hard coat anodized with Teflon coating to reduce wear and increase seal life
  • Nickel plated steel piston rod for strength and corrosion resistance

Application & Function
NGT’s B6SCFM-12 is a swivel-mounted pneumatic counterbalance valve that will hold a load in position until pressure or force is applied to move the load. The male outlet allows the valve to mount directly to a cylinder or other pneumatic device. The male outlet of the valve swivels, allowing the valve to rotate as needed around the cylinder. The B6SCFM-12 counterbalance valve helps prevent cylinder runaway for vertical cylinders carrying a load. The B6SCFM-12 has 3/8 NPTF female inlet, 1/8 NPTF male outlet, and a blocked pilot port. The valve is internally piloted via a small air channel connecting both sides of the valve. As pressure builds in the valve during cylinder runaway, the valve will flutter and not reopen until the pilot signal is energized, continuously modulating. It has standard temperature seals and a flush manual release.
