OFC

OFC type check and stop valve are designed for delivering a discharge solution that improves performance and reliability of oil-free centrifugal compressors with magnetic bearings by incorporating a damped check valve, while reliably and efficiently incorporating stop and diffuser functions.

Features and benefits

  • Nozzle check valve closes quickly if backflow
  • Gas damper and special opening characteristic prevents from violent movements in surge conditions
  • Damped nozzle check valve reduces chattering noises
  • Decoupled stop function from check function allows faster access and improves reliability of sealing
  • Lock ring design prevents from unintentional closing of the valve
  • Built-in sight glass gives direct visibility to proper valve functioning and refrigerant flow
  • Built-in pressure port provides connection to high pressure cut out
  • Built-in staging port on both sides to enable more flexibility in system designs and Bolt on to all TTS/TGS/TTH/TGH compressor discharge ports
  • Optimized flow path enhances flow capacity with lower pressure drop and Multiple orientations possible

OFC check and stop valves

Innovative discharge solution for oil-free chillers and heat pumps

Designed to address main oil-free applications pain points, the OFC valve improves system efficiency and reliability, while reducing complexity. This patented all-in-one valve incorporates a damp nozzle check valve, a stop valve and diffuser functions. It makes a perfect fit with Danfoss Turbocor® oil-free compressors.
