Swing Check Valves

Swing check valves are an essential component in any fluid handling system, allowing for the automatic control of the flow of liquids or gases in a single direction. These valves operate on the principle of a swinging disc, which opens when the fluid flow is in the desired direction and closes to prevent backflow.

Swing check valves are commonly used in applications where backflow prevention is critical, such as in wastewater systems, industrial processes, and irrigation systems. They are particularly well-suited for applications with variable flow rates, as they allow for uninterrupted flow in one direction while preventing reverse flow when the system is shut off.

The NDS 1720C20 2" True Union Swing Check Valve and NDS 1720C30 3" True Union Swing Check Valve are prime examples of high-quality swing check valves that offer reliable performance and long-lasting durability. These valves are designed with precision engineering to ensure a tight seal and smooth operation, even in demanding environments.

When selecting a swing check valve, it is important to consider factors such as pressure rating, material compatibility, and maintenance requirements. It is also essential to choose a valve that is properly sized for the specific flow rate and pressure conditions of the system it will be used in.

Overall, swing check valves are a crucial component in fluid handling systems, providing efficient flow control and backflow prevention to ensure the safe and effective operation of various applications. With the right selection and installation, swing check valves can contribute to the overall performance and longevity of a fluid handling system.
