Check Valve

Check Valves (also known as Non-return Valves) – Essential Unidirectional Flow Control

  • A check valve (non-return valve) automatically ensures fluid flow in one direction only, preventing backflow and protecting pumps, compressors, and piping systems. Activated solely by fluid pressure, it requires no external control, making it ideal for fail-safe applications.

    Key Types of Check Valves:
    Swing Check Valve: A hinged disc swings open with forward flow and closes under reverse pressure.
    Lift Check Valve: Also known as Piston Check Valve - A piston-like disc lifts vertically to allow flow, then seats tightly under backflow.
    Ball Check Valve: A spring-loaded ball retracts during forward flow and seals against the seat when flow reverses.

    Advantages Across Industries:
    Zero Backflow Risk: Critical for oil & gas pipelines, chemical processing, and boiler feed systems.
    Low Maintenance: No manual intervention required for standard operation.
    Material Versatility: Bodies in cast iron, stainless steel (SS316), or alloys (Inconel®) for corrosive or high-temperature media.

    Typical Applications of Check Valves:
    Pump discharge protection, Steam condensate recovery, HVAC chilled water systems, Refinery hydrocarbon transfer
