Check Valve

 A check valve is a type of valve that allows fluid (liquid or gas) to flow in only one direction, preventing backflow. It operates automatically, without the need for manual intervention. Check valves are essential in pipelines to protect pumps, compressors, and other equipment from damage caused by reverse flow.

Applications of Check Valves

⦁ Water and Wastewater Systems: Prevents backflow in pipelines.
⦁ Oil & Gas Industry: Protects pumps and compressors from reverse flow.
⦁ Power Plants: Ensures proper flow in cooling systems.
⦁ Pharmaceutical & Chemical Industry: Used in processing fluids that must flow in one direction.
⦁ HVAC Systems: Prevents refrigerant backflow.
⦁ Fire Protection Systems: Ensures proper flow in sprinkler systems
