Abstract
A safety check unit for use in a liquid distribution system for preventing damage to a pump and associated components of the system in event of loss in pumping pressure. The unit provides a check component to prevent back-flow of the liquid when the pump is shut down, and provides protection against a possible vacuum condition in the system by introducing air to the system; protects against damage by a surging back-flow of liquid by opening a relief port of the unit; and protects against air in the system by use of an air relief mechanism of the unit.
