Zusammenfassung: | A main water supply safety valve to provide a maximum pressure to a water conditioning apparatus while preventing any shock load of water hammer from passing into the apparatus while still providing a single or dual check valve. When pressure acting on outlet side (306) of stepped piston (311) exceeds the force of spring (337) and pressure acting on the inlet side (304) of piston (311), the piston moves to shut off flow. The valve also has check valves (338 and 334) and a stepped ring (325) which moves to expose ring (330) to indicate that seals (312 and 313) have leaked or failed. In a different embodiment, the piston (311) has an internal seat (207) at the outlet end of piston bore (317) and a stepped shaft (203) in piston bore (317) biased towards the valve inlet (304). The step shoulder of shaft (203) seals against internal seat (207) when the piston (311) moves towards inlet (304) and a protruding portion of shaft (203) abuts against a stop. |
