How suction/discharge check valve works for recip pump and diaphram pumps
(OP)
Hi all,
Is the suction/discharge check valve for recip and diaphram pump opened by the differencial pressure across the valve?
Will the discharge pressure be affected by the suction pressure?
Thanks,

Yes,
That was easy.

So that means if the pressure discharge piping is close to zero, then the discharge pressure of the recip pump will be close to zero? If so, how can the discharge pressure build up at the discharge?

I knew it wouldn't be that easy....
