The ICV-85 Intake Valve (also known as an air inlet valve) is a critical component installed between the air filter and the compressor airend in screw air compressors . It acts as the "gatekeeper" of the compression system, regulating the volume of air entering the compression chamber and controlling the compressor's loading and unloading cycles .
Stops Oil Blowback – Integrated check valve prevents oil from spraying back at shutdown, keeping the air filter clean and reducing oil loss.
Smart Loading Control – Normally open design responds instantly to control pressure signals for smooth loading and unloading cycles.
Fast, Precise Operation – Dual valve plate structure opens and closes in about 0.2 seconds, minimizing pressure fluctuations and system shock.
Energy Efficient – Low-resistance internal flow path reduces pressure drop, helping lower power consumption.
Built-In Unloading Support – Includes a small bleed hole to maintain proper system pressure during unloading, protecting the motor and ensuring oil circulation.
Built to Last – Constructed from durable materials to perform reliably in tough industrial environments.
Simple Installation – Standard flange design allows direct drop-in replacement for many domestic compressor models.
The ICV-85 is widely installed in industrial screw air compressors across:
Manufacturing – Controls air intake for production lines, pneumatic tools, and automated systems.
Automotive – Manages compressed air for paint booths, pneumatic clamps, and tire inflation.
Food & Beverage – Supports clean air systems for packaging, bottling, and processing.
Electronics – Provides stable, contaminant-free air for precision assembly and cleanrooms.
Textile – Regulates air supply for air-jet looms, spinning, and finishing equipment.
Packaging & Printing – Ensures reliable compressed air for packaging machinery and printing presses.
