Check Valves in Semiconductor Fabrication

Posted by DFT Valves on

Semiconductors are highly sensitive electronic components that require precision and ultra-clean settings to produce. For creating and maintaining such high-purity conditions in semiconductor fabs, another name for fabrication facilities, manufacturers commonly utilize check valves in their fluid systems. Read on to learn more about the importance of dependable check valves in semiconductor fabrication operations as… Read More


PDC® Valves vs. Piston Check Valves

Posted by DFT Valves on

PDC DFT check_valve

Pulse-dampening check valves, or PDC® valves, are designed for installation on the discharge side of a gas or air reciprocating compressor and feature a pulse-dampening chamber. With this pulse-dampened design, during the momentary pressure and flow increases and reductions that occur with a reciprocating compressor’s cycles, the PDC® valve’s disc remains in the open position,… Read More
