Key Features
-
Functionality: Acts as a one-way check valve to prevent backflow in domestic water circuits or instrumentation systems. Common applications include potable water systems, tank overfill protection, HVAC units, and gas line regulators.
-
Construction:
-
Body Material: High-quality brass (e.g., CW617N), providing corrosion resistance for potable water use. Internal Components: Durable spring and poppet assemblies—standard versions are brass/plastic; leak-detection models use stainless-steel springs and FKM/Viton O‑rings.
-
-
Performance Specifications:
-
Maximum Working Pressure: Typically up to 10 bar (150 psi) for potable-use models; specialized versions support up to ~3000 psi (gas service). Temperature Range: Rated up to 90 °C for water service; gas/instrument versions support higher pressures and varied temperatures.
-
-
Flow Rating: Typical Kv ≈ 5.1 m³/h for ¾″ size units.
-
Connection Types: Available in standard male threaded nipples — ¼″, ½″, ¾″, 1″, with lengths from ~3 cm (1¼″) to longer.
