Retainerless Duo Wafer Check
How is this design different from regular wafer check and what are High performance Duo wafer check?
A duo check valve is considered a sub-category of the wafer check valve. The main characteristic of a duo-check is that the disc is split in two, and opens similar to a butterfly valve. The original/standard wafer check only has 1 disc.
This might be relevant.
Without retainer indicates perhaps a direct metal to metal sealing with direct contact, again the definitions for HP butterfly valves might be significant.
The above said, i must admit that I have never seen this descriptin in connection with a check valve.
On
the other hand it is quite common that the description for a check
valves leans towards somthing used in 'an almost similar' , but
older/previous solution, without adeqatly giving the necessary fluid and
operation parameters necessary to dimension and select the optimum
type: eg.: correct dimension, type, placement etc. necessary to avoid
pressure peaks and slamming or gulping operation, partially open valve,
minimum pressure loss and soft opening and closing.
