The CK-3 check valve prevents backward flow of high pressure refrigerant gases and liquid.
Parker’s CK-3 is a compact and lightweight check valve that features a threaded process connection that simplifies connections and reduces installation costs. The spring-loaded check valve requires a minimum 0.34 bar (5 psi) pressure drop to overcome the spring force and lift the valve seat, allowing the check valve to be mounted in any position. The valve opens wide for flow in the arrow direction on the body of the valve. When flow reversal occurs the CK-3 valve closes quickly and reliably.
Features and Benefits:
• Screwed Ends (FPT Connections)
• Spring Loaded
• Installs in any position
Applications:
• Branch hot gas lines from a single hot gas solenoid valve to prevent liquid cross-over between evaporators during refrigeration
• Hot gas connection from the drain pan to the evaporator to prevent drain pan frosting
