Non Return Valve

In Stock

A non-return valve, also known as a check valve, is designed to allow fluid to flow through it in only one direction. This type of valve is crucial for preventing the backflow of fluid, which could potentially cause damage or disrupt operation in systems like pumping stations, hydraulic systems, and water supply networks. Non-return valves automatically open under forward flow and close when the flow ceases or reverses, operating entirely by the pressure of the fluid being handled without the need for manual intervention. Their simple design and effective functionality make them indispensable in maintaining the integrity and efficiency of fluid control systems.

How does a non-return valve work?Firstly for the functioning of the non-return valve it requires a minimum pressure or the upstream pressure is required for the opening of the valve. The pressure at which the valve opening takes place is called cracking pressure. The cracking pressure of each such valve depends upon the size and diameter of the valve. They could also be varying upon the upstream pressure required for the functioning; high-pressure types of equipment may require a greater cracking pressure.What if the upstream pressure falls below the cracking pressure? This will lead to the backflow of the fluid. In this situation, the non-return valve will get closed. The closing of the valve may depend upon the prevailing situation such as pressure on the gate, ball, diaphragm, etc.What are the various types of non-return valves?Ball non-return valveA ball non-return valve uses a free-floating or a spring-loaded ball that rests on the sealing seat to close the office. This ball is used to check and stop the backflow of fluid when the pressure of the fluid in the inlet side exceeds the cracking pressure; the ball is dislodged from its seat and allowsflow to occur. When the inlet pressure doesn’t exceed the cracking pressure, or there isback pressure, the ball will close with thebackpressure or via the spring, effectively closing the orifice. The free-floating ball is used for low-pressure applications and the spring-loaded ball is used for high-pressure applications.What are the applications of ball non-return valves?
  • Pumping stations
  • Metering pumps
  • Chromatography pumps
Spring-loaded inline non-return valveIn-line spring-loaded is one of the most common types of non-return valve used. When flow enters from the input port of the valve it has more pressure than the cracking pressure and the spring pressure. Due to which it pushes the disc and allows the fluid to move ahead through the valve, once the input pressure is less than the cracking pressure or there is the backflow of fluid it will again back press the disk against the orifice to create a sealing application. They are also called nozzle non-return valves or silent check valves.What are the applications of spring-loaded in-line non-return valves?
  • Pumping stations
  • Firefighter water pumps
  • Hydraulic pumps
Spring-loaded y non-return valveThey are very similar to the in-line spring-loaded. They both tend to work on the same lines of working principles. The only difference between both of them is the placement of the disc. Here in spring-loaded y type, the disc is placed at an angle to the fluid flowing direction. This helps in maintaining the non-return valve from the pipeline.What are the applications of spring-loaded y type?
  • Used in pumping systems
  • Chemical industries
  • Pipelines
DiaphragmThe diaphragm non-return valve consists of Diaphragm which opens when there is inlet pressure. The Diaphragm is very soft and elastic. It has a normal opening which means it does not require any cracking pressure. When the inlet pressure incurs Diaphragm flexes, as the pressure keeps on increasing the Diaphragm keeps on flexing more.If backpressure occurs (or it is a normally closed diaphragm check valve) the diaphragm will be forced against the opening and seal it to prevent any backflowWhat are the applications of the diaphragm non-return valve?
  • Vacuum systems
  • Food industry
  • Solar industries
Butterfly non-return valveA butterfly check valve is also known as a dual, folding disk, double disk, or splits check valve. The halves of the disk open toward the centerline, as seen in the diagram, during the forward flow of the fluid. With reverse flow, the halves open and seal the pipe. The short distance that the halves have to travel lessens the slamming effect on the disks.What are the applications of the butterfly non-return valves?
  • Ventilating systems
  • Heating systems
  • Air conditioning system
Dual non-return valvesDual non-return valves are also known as double check valves. As the name suggests in one mechanism they consist of two non-return valves. In Which both of them work independently. The main benefit is if one stops working. The other one acts as a backup to perform the function. They are also used in a situation wherein there is dealing with high pressure, this helps in distribution of high pressure in both the valves equally and work more efficiently.What are the applications of dual non-return valves?
  • Combi boiler system
  • Fire sprinkler
  • Lawn irrigation facilities
Swing non-return valvesThey consist of the disc or a trunnion that swings open with an inlet pressure. If In a situation there is the backflow of pressure or the inlet pressure decreases this will result in shutting off the discs and create a sealing effect. The body of the swing check valve is available in a Y-pattern or straight body design. The straight body design has the disc hinged at the top so that it seals against the seat, which is integral to the body. A single-disc swing check valve is designed with the closure element attached to the top of the cap.What are the applications of swing non-return valve?
  • Sewage treatment
  • Wastewater management plant
  • Household items
