Brass Check Valve

Brass Check Valve

Brass Check Valve is a reliable component designed to ensure unidirectional flow in various piping systems. Constructed from durable brass, this valve automatically prevents backflow of fluid, protecting pumps and sensitive equipment from damage. Its straightforward design makes it suitable for a wide range of applications where maintaining flow direction is critical.

  • Material: Brass
  • Function: Check Valve (prevents backflow)
  • Connection Type: Threaded (likely Female NPT or BSP, given the common use in plumbing)
  • Sizes Available: 1/2″, 3/4″, 1″, 1 1/4″, 1 1/2″, 2″
  • Applications:
    • Water supply systems
    • Pumping systems
    • Hydronic systems
    • Any system requiring prevention of reverse flow.
  • Advantages:
    • Durable brass construction for longevity and corrosion resistance.
    • Automatic operation based on pressure differential.
    • Ensures reliable one-way fluid flow.

General Information on Check Valves:

A check valve is a type of valve that allows fluid to flow in only one direction. They are commonly found in various systems, including plumbing, HVAC, and industrial processes, to prevent backflow which could damage equipment or contaminate the fluid. Unlike other valves that require external operation (like ball valves with handles), check valves operate automatically based on pressure differential. When fluid pressure on the inlet side exceeds the pressure on the outlet side, the valve opens; when pressure on the outlet side becomes higher, or flow stops, the valve closes to prevent reverse flow.
