Piston type check valves are generally used to protect pumps or similar equipment whilst allowing the passage of flow in only one direction and preventing the return of it due to backpressure. The piston check valves are designed with globe valve bodies, producing an increased drop pressure in the pipeline. This design provides a tight seal as well as a fast reaction to the closure impulse.
