DAC Worldwide’s ACR Magnetic Check Valve Cutaway (373-510) is a professionally sectioned example of a magnetic check valve commonly used in air conditioning and refrigeration systems.
Check valves permit refrigerant to flow in one direction while helping prevent reverse flow. Magnetic check valves are often installed in compressor discharge lines to reduce refrigerant migration or backflow during the off cycle. Their hermetically sealed construction also allows them to be installed in different orientations, subject to the valve manufacturer’s requirements.
A carefully planned cutaway of the valve body and seat area reveals the internal flow path, magnetic closing mechanism, seat, and moving valve element. Color coding, directional-flow arrows, and numbered callouts make the valve’s construction and operating principles easier to interpret.
The ACR Magnetic Check Valve Cutaway helps learners examine how pressure opens the valve in the intended flow direction and how the magnetic mechanism returns the moving element to its seat when forward flow stops or reverse pressure develops.
The exposed internal configuration supports instruction in component identification, refrigerant-flow direction, valve operation, installation considerations, system maintenance, and troubleshooting.
The full-size cutaway can be used independently with a compatible tabletop mounting foot or combined with other DAC Worldwide cutaways on optional display and storage frame assemblies.
The equipment is cleaned, primed, and finished with a durable urethane coating to withstand frequent classroom and laboratory use. Carefully selected cutaway areas provide clear visibility of the valve’s internal components while preserving their relationship and operating characteristics.
Pair the ACR Magnetic Check Valve Cutaway with additional DAC Worldwide HVAC/R cutaways to compare valve construction, refrigerant-flow control, operating principles, and system applications.
