I don’t have a link, but my Moroso valve only held against pressure in one direction when de-energized. As long as the “In” port faced the accumulator it could charge and hold when switched off. Made it convenient to fill before shutting off the vehicle. Also, essential for pressure switch activated systems to be able recharge once oil pump output resumes and the pressure switch turns off.
