English term or phrase: drip check

Habe diese Beschreibung gefunden:

The Automatic Drip Checks are designed to drain water automatically, which may leak past a normally closed dry valve or deluge valve.
They close, however, against an increase in flow pressure and will open automatically at a predetermined decrease in pressure. The
devices are used with dry and deluge valves to drain any water that may seep by the valve clapper.
