Reliable Check Valve Solutions for Backflow Prevention

 

Check valves are automatic flow control devices designed to allow fluid flow in one direction while preventing reverse flow in pipelines. Available in lift, swing, wafer and axial flow designs, they help protect pumps, compressors and industrial equipment in water treatment, petroleum, chemical and power applications.

Check Valve Design Features

 

 

Non-Slam Fast-Closing Response:

Axial flow and spring-loaded dual plate designs utilize low-inertia discs and pre-loaded springs to achieve instant closure prior to flow reversal, eliminating destructive water hammer and pressure surges.

 

Zero-Leakage Metal & Resilient Seating:

Available with precision-machined Stellite metal-to-metal seats for high-temperature/abrasive media, or NBR/EPDM/VITON soft seats achieving ANSI/FCI 70-2 Class VI zero-leakage performance.

 

Low Pressure Drop Efficiency:

Engineered with streamlined flow passages and optimized disc contour angles to minimize turbulence and permanent pressure loss across the pipeline system.
