Flanged back check valves for one directional LPG/NH3 flow

Flanged back check valves are one-way valves that protect container contents from escaping if piping or fittings accidentally break. They are usually used in gas installations where a high flow is needed yet restricted to flowing in one direction.

Product description

As back check valves provide a one-way flow security functionality, they are ideal for installation in pipelines flowing into pressure tanks and pump discharge lines as they will close off if the flow-direction changes or stops. The disc design requires a minimal installation space and is thereby suitable for many installations, also as a later modification.
