VAG CHECKtronic Pump Safety Valve
Pump start-up
The electric actuator keeps the valve closed
against the pump starting up. When the pump has
reached its operating speed, the electric actuator
slowly opens the valve and checks how fast the
water column accelerates to flow velocity to
minimise pressure surges at pump start-up.
Electric actuator
Pump operation
During normal pump operation, the valve is in fully
open position.

Body Pump or power failure
If the valve is in open position and if the power
supply of the pump fails, the integrated spring-

automatically from the electric actuator and quickly
closes the valve to prevent return flow through the
pump.
