Pump protection

Check valves are used to protect pumps from backflow, which could cause damage or reduce the pump’s efficiency. They are installed on the discharge side of the pump to ensure that the fluid flows in the right direction.

Boilers and steam systems

In boiler systems, check valves by check valve supplier produced are used to prevent condensate from flowing back into the steam system, which could cause water hammer or damage to steam traps.

Industrial process systems

Check valves are used in process systems to maintain the direction of flow and prevent cross-contamination between different fluids or gases.

Chemical dosing systems

In chemical injection or dosing systems, check valves are used to ensure that the chemical is injected into the process stream in the correct direction and prevent backflow of the process fluid into the chemical supply.

Irrigation systems

Check valves are used in irrigation systems to prevent backflow of water, which could contaminate the water supply or cause damage to the system components.

Fire protection systems

In fire sprinkler systems, check valves are used to prevent backflow of water, ensuring that water is always available for firefighting purposes.

Plumbing systems

Check valves are used in residential and commercial plumbing systems to prevent backflow of water or wastewater, which could contaminate the water supply.

Compressed air systems

In compressed air systems, check valves are used to prevent backflow of air and maintain the pressure in the system.

Hydraulic systems

Check valves are used in hydraulic systems to control the direction of fluid flow and maintain pressure within the system.

Fuel supply systems

In fuel supply systems, check valves are used to ensure that the fuel flows in the correct direction and prevent backflow, which could cause damage to the system components or create a fire hazard.
