Horizontal Lift Check Air Compressor Valve
Lunkenheimer Lift Check Valves
Specially designed for severe operating conditions of air compressor service. Out equally suited to many other air and gas line applications where there is frequent and rapid reversal of flow. All parts are renewable and machined to close tolerances.
Discs
Renewable stainless steel discs afford maximum resistance to wear in extreme service. Line of contact on disc face is narrow for tight closing.
Disc guides Bronze
Prevent cocking. They are sealed to the body with the heavy valve cap. Design provides air-cushioning to reduce pounding.
Bodies
Heavy walls for maximum strength and ample safety at maximum pressure rating. Full flow area is equal to connecting pipe. Large clearances at ends of pipe threads permit tight joints without pipe ends jamming diaphragms, distorting seat, or choking flow. Made of the highest quality steam bronze for strength and resistance to wear.
Caps
Extremely strong, anchoring disc guide in perfect alignment with disc travel. Wide flats for firm range grip. Strong threads for tight joints.
Maintenance
To maintain the air-cushioning effect of the disc guide, remove the cap and keep the interior of the disc well-oiled.
