ABSTRACT:
A valving interface is provided for use in a poppet valve. The valving interface includes a first convex contoured surface disposed on one end of a poppet and a second convex contoured surface disposed on a valve seat of a housing. When the poppet is seated on the valve seat, the first convex contoured surface contacts the valve seat on or generally adjacent the second convex contoured surface. When the poppet is spaced from the valve seat to permit fluid flow therethrough, the subject arrangement maintains a flow therethrough that keeps the static pressure above the vapor pressure thus eliminating or substantially reducing noise generated by fluid flow therethrough.
