Which action prevents cavitation in a hydraulic actuator rapidly extending a heavy load?

💡 Explanation

When a hydraulic actuator extends rapidly with a heavy load, load-induced vacuum can cause cavitation due to sudden pressure drops. Installing an anti-cavitation check valve allows fluid to refill the cylinder, preventing bubble formation. Therefore, the valve prevents cavitation rather than viscosity increase, cylinder change, or fluid modification which address other issues.
