Abstract
An assembly is provided that can include check valve. The check valve can include a ball positioned between an inflow line and an outflow line. The ball can be movable between (i) an open position at which a fluid is allowed to flow between the inflow line and the outflow line and (ii) a closed position at which the fluid is prevented from flowing between the inflow line and the outflow line. The assembly can also include a spring positioned adjacent to the ball and operable to bias the ball in a closed position. The assembly can further include a poppet positioned adjacent to the ball. The poppet can be movable in response to a communication of a pilot pressure to the poppet. Further, the ball can be movable to the closed position in response to a force applied by the poppet.
