The BS 1868 swing check valve safeguards equipment like pumps and compressors by preventing damaging backflows. These non-return valves allow fluid flow in one direction and block reverse flows. Their simple design features a metallic disc attached to a hinge, which opens when fluid passes through but closes during reverse flow, preventing backflows with the help of gravity.
