classification of check valves
according to its structure and installed methods Check Valve can be divided into
1.Swing Check Valve: Swing check valve disc is cylindrical disk-shape,
around the seat channel axis to do rotational movement, due to inner
channel is the streamline, the flow resistance is smaller than the lift
check valve, apply to the low flow rate and seldom flow changes
large-caliber occasions, but it should not be used for pulsatile flow,
its sealing performance is less than lift type. Swing Check Valve is
devided into single disc, double disc, multi disc. These three types are
mainly according to valve diameter, for the purpose to prevent the
media stopping flow or reflux, reducing the hydraulic compact.
2.Lift Check Valve: disc slides along the body vertical axis, lift check
valve can only be installed in horizontal pipelines, the high-pressure
small-diameter check valve upper disc uses ball. Lift-type check valve
body shape is the same with globe valve (commonly used to the globe
valve), so its flow resistant coefficient is larger. its structure is
similar to globe valves, body and disc are the same with globe valve.
upper disc and lower bonnet have guided sleeve, the disc guided sleeve
can freely lift, when the medium downstream, the disc opens by media
thrust, when the media stopped-flow, the disc relies on self-vertical
landing on the seat, affected as preventing media backwash.
Straight-through lift check valve inlet and outlet media channel
direction is perpendicular to seat channels; vertical lift-type check
valve, its media inlet and outlet channel direction is the same with the
valve seat passage, its flow resistance is smaller than the
straight-through type.
3. butterflyCheck Valve: the check valve that disc rotates around the
seat pin. Its structure is simple, can only be installed in horizontal
pipelines, with poor sealing.
4.Pipeline Check Valve: disc slides along the centerline of the valve
body. Pipe-type check valve is a new valve, and its small size, light
weight, processing technology is good, is one of valve development. But
the fluid resistant coefficient is slightly larger than the swing Check
Valve.
5.Clamp-in valve: This valve is used for boiler feed water and steam
off, it has the integrated function of lift check valve and stop valve
or angle valve.
