Check valves are the most commonly used and the simplest type of directional control valves.

Hydraulic Actuators and Control Components - Hydraulics and Pneumatics

Subject and UNIT: Hydraulics and Pneumatics: Unit II: Hydraulic Actuators and Control Components

As the name suggests, the function of a directional control valve (DCV) is to control the direction of flow in a hydraulic circuit.
