A flow control valve in a unitary casing has a seat for a manual stem valve on one side of the valve opening and a seat for a check valve on the other side, the check valve being lightly urged toward closing position against differential pressure in the flow stream and being receptive to external pressure control.

Multi-purpose valve assembly

A single casing valve is especially adapted for the inlet of a rotary screw type compressor, the valve having provision for both a manual and an automatic shut-off, the latter responsive to discharge pressure for closing the inlet, and having a strainer in the suction line which is downstream from the valve seat in order that the strainer may be changed with the compressor isolated from the inlet source.
