Check valves can help reduce the effect of water hammers, especially when the valve is equipped with an end stage damper. By preventing reverse flow, check valves prevent the mixing of different media between two reservoirs.
EZ-FLO brass swing check valve keeps fluids from backing up into the water supply and prevents backflow from wells and boiler systems. This check valve is lead free and suitable for all potable water supply installations. It is constructed of brass for strength and durability.
Types of water supply system & well system check valves, flow control valves, water pressure regulators: gravity operated check valves, spring loaded check valves for wells and water piping: selection, installation, maintenance, repair.
A check valve, also called a one-way valve, is a device that allows the flow of fluids to move only in one direction. The primary purpose of a check valve is to prevent backflow in the system.
A Check valve is a mechanical device used in piping and pipeline systems to prevent back-flow. Check valves allow fluid flow only in the forward direction that’s why it is called a one-way valve or non-return valve. They work on the principle of differential pressure.
To test a water check valve, close the water supply valve, turn on a faucet to drain the water, disconnect the valve, check for debris, and blow air through the valve in both directions. View our online selection of check valves!
The EZ-FLO Brass IPS Swing Check Valve keeps fluids from backing up into the water supply preventing the contamination of clean water. This check valve is built with brass for durability and strength. It is lead-free and suitable for potable water applications.
Check valves are a common sight in industrial systems and are used to remove wastewater and other contaminated fluids. Check valves feature a single inlet and outlet where water can pass through it but not back up it, and it is operated by a pressure differential, according to Proco Products.
Swing check valves have historically been the most common type of check valve used in water and wastewater pumping systems. The name "swing check valve" comes from its design, which typically consists of a valve body and a closure element (or disc) that rotates around a hinge pin. The swing angle is usually between 60 to 90 degrees.
Check valves are self-activating safety valves that permit gases and liquids to flow in only one direction. The purpose of a check valve is to prevent process flow from reversing in the system which could damage equipment or upset the process. They are classified as one-way directional valves.
