Our Universal Cast Steel Check Valves are engineered to meet international standards such as API 6D, BS1868, and ASME B16.34, offering a design that minimizes flow resistance and pressure drop. These valves are ideal for horizontal pipeline installations, ensuring tight shutoff and long service life through their lapped and screwed-in seat rings. The disc is precisely machined and guided to guarantee efficient automatic shutoff even at zero pressure. Designed with a compact structure, these valves also offer low-emission service. The swing check valve features a bolted cover and a free-swinging clapper that responds to flow conditions, providing effective closure. However, for larger discs that may cause chattering, dampers or counterweights are recommended to prevent issues.

Features of Swing Check Valve
» Backflow Prevention: The cast steel swing check valve is designed to prevent backflow in pipelines, allowing for smooth flow in a straight line, which minimizes pressure drop.
» Automatic Disc Operation: The valve's disc swings open when media flows through the line, and back pressure keeps the disc in the closed position to prevent reverse flow.
» Flexible Installation: These valves can be installed in both horizontal and vertical lines, as long as the installation follows the proper flow direction indicated by the body's arrow.
» Customizable Accessories: Various accessories such as bypasses, locking devices, counterweights, and others are available to meet specific customer needs and ensure optimal operation.
