Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

In one featured embodiment, a piston for a valve comprises a cylindrical body surrounding a center axis and defined by an overall length extending from an upstream end to a downstream end. The cylindrical body has a piston bore configured to receive a spring assembly. The cylindrical body has a maximum outer diameter that comprises a closure sleeve contact surface, and the cylindrical body is defined by a first length that is less than the overall length. A ratio of the first length to the maximum outer diameter is between 1.0 and 1.2.
