The pump check valves for reciprocating pumps (whether diaphragm or plunger) should be designed with care. They should have a low NPSH requirement, have a good kinematic performance and should be subject to as little wear as possible. The last-named condition implies that hard and corrosion resistant materials should be used for the valve cone or plate as well as for the seat. A typical valve and pump head design is shown in Figure 9.27.
