ABSTRACT:
A typical embodiment of the invention provides a means for protecting delte instruments from damage. A flexible membrane separates two chambers in which, during ordinary operation, the fluid pressures are the same. One of the two chambers also serves as a fluid conduit in the system. Pressure loss in the system causes the higher pressure chamber to flex the membrane which closes a port in the fluid conduit chamber, thereby preventing further system pressure loss and consequent equipment damage. The membrane, moreover, can have a small bleed to permit gradual, dampened fluid pressure release.
