is only available in the following pump types:
8.11 Check valves
A check valve may be required on the outlet side of the pump to
prevent the pump inlet pressure from being exceeded.
When a pump with no check valve is stopped because there is no
demand on the system (all valves are closed), the high system
pressure on the outlet side of the pump will "find" its way back to
the inlet of the pump.
This is especially critical for CRN-SF applications because of the
very high outlet pressures involved. As a result, most CRN-SF
installations require a check valve on the outlet piping.
