High-pressure valve for high-pressure pump, which has a valve body with inlet and outlet, the cylinder chamber of the pump piston rod being connected to the said valve body. The inlet communicates with the cylinder chamber via a bore which houses a first valve seat with a valve ball. Moreover, the cylinder chamber is connected via a further bore with the outlet, said bore housing a valve seat with its valve ball. This device is characterised in that each valve seat with its valve ball is designed as ball check valve and thus forms an assembly. These ball check valves are removable from the valve body, the link between valve and valve body preferably being designed as single or multiple bolting. An ideal embodiment of the invention provides for ball check valves with external male threading and for a female threading in the recess accommodating the check valves.
High-pressure valve for a high-pressure pump, with a valve body having an inlet and outlet, the said valve being connected to the cylinder chamber of a pump piston rod, the inlet being connected to the said cylinder chamber via a bore accommodating a first valve seat and its ball and the said chamber communicating with the outlet via another bore that is also equipped with a valve seat and its ball, the said valve seats and the balls constituting an assembly as ball check valve and being removable from the valve body, wherein the valve seats are configured to form a sealed unit with the valve body, wherein the seal comprises metal on metal, and wherein the valve seats have a cylindrical and conical part, the seats being conically tapered on the metallically sealed side and the bores accommodating valve seats in the valve body also being provided with a conical and cylindrical section, the difference in gradient between the cones amounting to max. 2 (two) degrees of angle and in an ideal embodiment less than 1 (one) degree of angle.
