In a lot of hydraulic applications in the field, we still come across check valves that were implemented as in-house or improvised solutions. These typically consist of ball, spring, and plug, and are installed in existing drillings. What may once have seemed practicable is now causing increasing problems in operation and maintenance — especially when the know-how needed to produce the required installation drilling, for example, is no longer available, as the original designers or technicians have long since retired.
Typical challenges with in-house check valve designs:
- Leaks on sealing surfaces due to manufacturing errors
- Susceptibility to errors during installation
- Tests can only be carried out once installed
- High costs in time, labor, and resources due to multiple individual components
- Missing information in drawings or parts lists
- Increased logistical and organizational effort
