Universal Cast Steel Check Valves are meticulously designed and manufactured in strict compliance with international standards such as API 6D, BS 1868, ASME B16.34, or equivalent. These valves are engineered to minimize flow resistance and pressure drop, ensuring optimal performance. They are specifically designed for horizontal installation, with a lapped and screwed seat ring that guarantees a tight seal and long-lasting service.
The valve disc is precisely designed and machined to ensure efficient automatic shut-off at zero pressure. It features a compact structure and low-emission service, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. In its standard configuration, the swing check valve includes a bolted cover and a free-swinging clapper. The clapper, which is the closing member, responds dynamically to flow conditions to maintain proper operation.
While swing check valves are ideally suited for horizontal pipeline installations, heavier disc weights may lead to chattering issues. To mitigate this, dampers or counterweights should be installed to ensure smooth operation and prevent potential disruptions.

Product Features
» Preventing Backflow: Cast steel swing check valves are designed to prevent reverse flow in pipelines. The flow passes through the valve in a straight line, resulting in minimal pressure drop. As the fluid flows through the line, the disc swings into the open position. When back pressure occurs, the disc is held in the closed position to prevent reverse flow.
» Flexible Installation Options: Cast steel swing check valves can be installed in both horizontal and vertical pipelines. However, they must be installed in the correct orientation relative to the flow direction, as indicated by the flow direction arrow marked on the valve body.
» Customizable Accessories: A variety of accessories are available to meet specific customer requirements. These include bypasses, locking devices, counterweights, and more, ensuring the valve can be tailored to fit various application needs.
