Description
This is a union straight check valve that allows free flow in one direction and prevents it from going in the opposite direction. The valve has a spring loaded poppet that blocks the orifice of the valve. If the air is coming from the poppet side, the poppet will be pushed from the base of the orifice and the air will go through. If the air comes from the opposite side it will press the poppet against the base and block its way.
It has 12 mm push-in fittings on both sides. The push-in fitting provides an easy connection with the tubing. Push the tube in and the fitting will fix it with stainless steel claws.
It is suitable for a maximum operating pressure of 9 bar (130.5 psi. Also suitable for vacuum applications at a pressure of -1 bar (-14.5 psi). It has NBR seals that make it suitable for applications within a temperature range from 0 to 60°C (32 to 140 °F) (no freezing).
Pros:
- Suitable for vacuum applications
- Equipped with easy to connect push-in fittings
Cons:
- Dust could damage the pneumatic system if vacuum is applied without a filter on the inlet side
