Grey threaded PVC ball check valve
The grey PVC ball check valve is a component of a sewage installation that allows the medium to flow in only one direction and prevents backflow. A free-floating ball is located inside the body—it rises under the pressure of the flow and drops to stop the medium from returning. The U-PVC body and the EPDM ball and seals provide resistance to wastewater and typical sewage media.
Who it is for
-
Sewage system installers – the valve protects the installation against wastewater flowing back from a stack or collector.
-
Constructors of pumping stations and drainage systems – protection of the pump and pipeline against backflow.
-
Homeowners with gravity sewage systems – protection against flooding when the network backs up.
-
Plumbing wholesalers and service companies – simple glued or threaded installation in standard sizes.
Applications
The PVC ball check valve is used in sewage installations where it is necessary to prevent wastewater and medium from flowing back. It is installed on the pipeline in accordance with the flow direction, in a glued or threaded version. The ball inside the body automatically opens and closes the flow without the need for control.
It is suitable for pumping stations, drainage systems, and domestic sewage installations exposed to backflow. The size is selected based on the pipeline diameter. The grey PVC ball check valve is available in sizes 1¼", 1½", and 2".
Features of the PVC ball check valve
The valve operates using a free-floating ball enclosed in the body. Flow in the correct direction lifts the ball and opens the passage for the medium, while a cessation or reversal of flow causes the ball to drop onto the seat and prevent backflow. Operation is fully automatic and requires no power supply or manual control.
The body is made of U-PVC, while the ball and seals are made of EPDM, resistant to wastewater and typical sewage media. The valve is available in a glued version (for bonding, without a thread) in sizes from 1¼" to 2", and in a threaded version in size 2". The grey version has an opaque body.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) – Gray PVC Ball Check Valve
What is the IBO PVC ball check valve used for?
The PVC ball check valve allows the medium to flow in only one direction and prevents it from flowing back in the sewage installation. In this way, it protects pumps, pipelines, and rooms from the effects of backflow. It operates automatically, without a power supply.
What is the difference between the gray and transparent versions?
The gray version has an opaque body, while the transparent version has a transparent body that allows the ball’s operation and the flow to be observed. Both versions have the same design and specifications. The transparent version facilitates visual inspection and detection of contaminants without disassembly.
How does a ball check valve work?
There is a free-moving ball inside the body. Flow in the correct direction lifts it and opens the passage for the medium, while a loss or reversal of flow causes the ball to drop onto the seat and prevent backflow. The entire process is automatic.
Is the valve suitable for sewage?
Yes. The body made of U-PVC, as well as the ball and EPDM seals, are resistant to sewage and typical wastewater media. The valve is specifically designed for sewage installations.
How do I choose the size and installation method?
The size is selected according to the pipeline diameter – 1¼", 1½", and 2" connections are available. The glued version is available in sizes from 1¼" to 2", while the threaded version is available in 2". The maximum working pressure is PN10.
Where can the IBO PVC ball check valve be purchased?
As the manufacturer, we do not sell directly. The IBO PVC ball check valve can be purchased from our trade partners, plumbing wholesalers, and authorized online distributors. The variant and size should be selected according to the installation.
What is the warranty on the IBO PVC ball check valve?
IBO – 24 months (2 years) manufacturer’s warranty. Warranty and post-warranty service is provided by Dambat. For selection advice, it is best to contact an authorized distributor.
