non return valve
or check valve
or antisuck-back valve
In your context I think TFV mean Rückfahrsperrventil.
The above translation are context dependant.
antisuck-back valve is a specialized term for VACUUM pumps. You won't find it in dictionnaries.
The most classic term is check valve, however it applies to a ball check valves (a small steel or plastic or sapphire ball moves back against a sealing conic seat if the liquid tends to return).
