Check valves
Check valves work automatically to eliminate back flow in a process line. There's no need for manual operation--the valve can be installed in relatively inaccessible locations. Although other valve installations may require clearance for actuators, access to a manual valve shut off or other features, check valves require little maintenance.
If installed as a diversion valve to relieve excess pressure or heat, the check valve gate can be adjusted to respond to specific pressure settings. For example, a check valve can prevent a steam boiler from building up too much pressure or a car's radiator from rupturing when the coolant fails: the check valve will divert the high pressure media away from the process and avoid catastrophic failure. When pressure and heat amounts remain within operating limits, the check valve will stay closed. More products of valves
