Designs and Features of Low Cracking Pressure Check Valve

Low cracking pressure check valves are designed for minimum pressure drop and have a lightweight, compact design that provides maintenance-free, stable service. By using the proper spring settings, low cracking pressure check valves can also be used as a low pressure relief valve or vacuum breaker. Some of the materials that can be used when designing low cracking pressure check valves are:

• aluminum
• stainless steel
• inconel

ASC offers custom designed and engineered low cracking pressure check valves with flight proven dual flapper and split flapper designs. These low cracking pressure check valves can be designed in all types of pneumatic aerospace applications with flow temperatures from ambient up to 1200*. Some of the other features of our low cracking pressure check valves are:

• pressures up to 250 PSIG
• 1” to 7” line sizes
• 2 or 4 flappers
• cracking pressure as low as 1” H2O

Low cracking pressure check valves have many incredible features that make them perfect for the aerospace industry. They create an air-tight seal for fuel or air that ensures no leakage from the valve. It is adaptable to most fluids and gases used in the aerospace industry. They have an easy flow path and offer minimum restriction to air or fuel flow. Lastly, low cracking pressure check valves have very minimum wear and tear, making them solid and dependable for long-term use.

With such amazing features and range of use, low cracking pressure check valves can be used for several different functions for aircrafts, missiles, and rockets.
