Abstract
A valve assembly for operation within a valve body of a pump includes an axial centerline, a poppet guide having a stem, and a poppet slidingly coupled to the poppet guide so that the poppet and the poppet guide define an internal cavity. The valve assembly also includes a flexible poppet guide mounting system coupled to the poppet guide and the poppet and includes a variable-area flow restrictor in fluid communication with the internal cavity. The flexible poppet guide mounting system is configured to support the poppet guide and the poppet for lateral and axial movement of the poppet guide and the poppet relative to the axial centerline. The poppet is movable relative to the poppet guide to adjust the volume of the internal cavity.
