Reach out with your compressor model and serial number and we’ll help confirm compatibility.

What does the K09790-007 inlet valve repair kit do?

The K09790-007 is used to service the compressor inlet valve, which helps control incoming air to the compressor. This repair kit helps:

  • Restore proper inlet valve operation
  • Support correct air intake control
  • Help the compressor load and unload properly
  • Reduce air leakage through worn inlet valve components
  • Support stable compressor performance under changing air demand

Why is replacing the K09790-007 important?

A properly serviced inlet valve using the K09790-007 kit helps maintain:

  • Reliable compressor loading and unloading
  • Proper intake airflow control
  • Stable operating pressure
  • Better compressor efficiency
  • Reduced stress on related control components

A worn, leaking, sticking, or damaged inlet valve can cause poor load response, pressure instability, excess cycling, or reduced compressor output.

Is this an OEM part?

This is an OEM-equivalent replacement inlet valve repair kit designed to meet the same performance standards as the original Sullivan-Palatek repair kit. 

What are the signs that the K09790-007 inlet valve repair kit is needed?

Common symptoms include:

  • Compressor does not load correctly
  • Compressor does not unload correctly
  • Unstable system pressure
  • Delayed response to air demand
  • Air leaking through the inlet valve
  • Reduced compressor output
  • Excessive cycling
  • Worn seals or internal valve components found during inspection

If the inlet valve is sticking, leaking, or no longer controlling intake airflow properly, the K09790-007 repair kit may be needed.

How difficult is it to install?

Installing the K09790-007 is generally a moderate maintenance task because it involves servicing the compressor inlet valve assembly. Before installation, the compressor should be:

  • Fully shut down
  • Electrically locked out
  • Completely depressurized
  • Cooled to a safe working temperature
  • Isolated from downstream system pressure

Installation typically involves accessing the inlet valve, disassembling the valve as needed, removing worn internal components, installing the replacement parts from the K09790-007 kit, reassembling the valve, and verifying proper loading, unloading, and intake valve response after startup.
