The moving spherical segment (1) seals with its surface at the valve seat (2) and is inserted radially, guided with almost no backlash, into the housing.<\/p>\n<p>The recesses (3) in the valve element enable flow with\u00a0minimum pressure drop and turbulence, which is even\u00a0improved by the means of no valve parts being behind\u00a0the valve element in the flow chamber (7).<\/p>\n<p>The spherical segment is guided with the help of a guide\u00a0sleeve (5) which rests on the contact slots. The closing\u00a0spring (4) of the valve is located behind the guide sleeve. In this way, the flow chamber of the valve is completely\u00a0free. In addition, the guide sleeve has longitudinal grooves\u00a0(6) on its entire circumference, so that these longitudinal\u00a0grooves act as control edges in the flow direction with the opening movement of the spherical segment. They are overlapped and enclosed on the spring impact ring,\u00a0which provides impact damping in the flow direction.<\/p>\n<p>Up to a maximum spherical segment of diameters up to 12\u00a0mm, the cartridge check valves are designed with a separate guide sleeve, while the larger valves with a spherical\u00a0segment diameter over 15 mm are manufactured in one\u00a0piece. This ingenious design results in high operational\u00a0reliability, even in highly dynamic applications (e.g., in accumulator operation).<\/p>\n<p>The perspective drawing demonstrates the structure of a valve. The valves are depending on their size designed for a maximum flow of 80 l\/min. At valves with radial outflow (e.g. pressure relief valves) spherical segments without recesses (3) are used.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The STEIN-Kugelventil GmbH was established in Lauingen\/Germany at June 7th 1988 by G\u00fcnter Stein.
