Should I replace the pilot-to-open check valve if my cylinder is drifting or moving?
Sun's pilot-to-open check valves with a metal-to-metal seat, when new, provide near zero leakage. If the actuator is drifting, and you have determined it is a result of the valve, the metal seat in the valve may have been damaged and it is recommended that a new valve be installed.
