Ball check valves are protective devices that safeguard pressurized pipelines against undesirable backflow. They are most commonly used on discharge risers in pumping stations for domestic and municipal wastewater, as well as in pumping stations forrainwater. The design and materials allow for wide use in installations inside sewage pumping station tanks, on above-ground transmission pipelines, as well as underground, in both vertical andand horizontal (while maintaining the correct flow direction).
Features:
• Full-bore flow
• Self-cleaning ball
• Low sealing pressure
• Vertical and horizontal installation
• Quiet operation
• Inspection chamber for cleaning and replacing the ball
Technical data:
- The products meet the requirements of the following standards:
- EN1092-2 PN16 and AS4087, AS4087 (AS2129 Table E),
- ISO 228-1 with regard to BSP threads,
- Category A, ISO5208 standard,
- EN558-1 series 48 (DIN3202 F6).
-
Threaded valve diameter range: from DN25 (1”) up to DN65 (2-1/2”).
- Flanged valve diameter range: DN50 to DN100.
- Maximum operating pressure: 16 bar.
- Minimum back pressure guaranteeing tightness: 0.3 to 0.5 bar.
- Test pressure:
- for the ball seat: 1.1 × nominal pressure,
- – for the body: 1.5 × nominal pressure.
-
Operating temperature range: 10–80°C.
-
The face-to-face length of the valves and the connection dimensions of the flanges and threads comply with the requirements of the standards listed above.
-
The correct direction of liquid flow through the valve is indicated by the arrow on the body.
-
The durable and simple design guarantees long-lasting, trouble-free operation.
-
The valve closure (shutter) consists of a smooth ball coated with a layer of wastewater-resistant EPDM. As the ball freely rotates in its seat, into which it is pushed by the liquid flow, the ball is cleaned of solid particles carried by the medium.
-
The valves feature a bolted inspection cover for inspection and convenient cleaning if non-standard wastewater contaminants enter the valve.
