Overview of Check Valves
These straightforward check valves are designed to inhibit air from entering a system after the rough pump is turned off. Commonly positioned on the exhaust side of the roughing pump, they effectively prevent the backflow of oil during pump shutdowns or failures. Depending on the installation requirements, these valves can utilize a gravity-sealed elastomer ball for vertical setups or a spring-loaded O-ring sealed disc that allows for installation in various orientations.
