The DFT® model PDC® check valve is a silent, non-slam check valve specially designed for use on the discharge side of reciprocating air or gas compressors. It includes a pulse-damping chamber to maintain the disc in the open position during the momentary reductions in flow associated with each cycle of a reciprocating compressor and to protect against premature seat wear.
