Zetco Check Valves

Check valves are mechanical valves that permit gases or liquids to flow in only one direction, preventing flow from reversing down the line. They are classified as one-way directional valves. Fluid flow in the desired direction opens the valve while backflow forces the check valve to close. Most check valves contain a flat disc that is slightly larger in diameter than that of the port. Flow indicators on the side of the body indicate the direction of the flow for correct installation.

Zetco has the most comprehensive range of WaterMarked check valves in Australia, being the first to develop such a range. Swing and Spring check valves are still available in non-watermarked versions in the market even though the Plumbing code (AS3500) calls for a tested WaterMarked product even in non-potable water environments. Zetco only stocks WaterMarked Spring and Swing checks for the plumbing industry, giving you confidence that you can comply with relevant legislation.

WaterMarked versions of both spring loaded and swing check valves are available in both flanged and threaded versions. Spring loaded check valves are available with seals for specific applications such as diesel and are fitted with conical jumpers to reduce flow restrictions. Spring loaded and swing check valves are available in 316 stainless steel to be utilised in aggressive applications. Flanged swing check valves are drilled to customers specifications.

Swing and Spring checks are available in threaded and flanged ends in sizes 15mm through to 100mm. Metals include DZR brass, bronze and stainless steel and are available in 1-, 2- and 3-piece versions.

Market applications include hydraulics, mining, pumps, compressed air and natural gas.

Check Valve FAQ

Check valves are mechanical valves that permit gases or liquids to flow in only one direction, preventing flow from reversing down the line. They are classified as one-way directional valves. Fluid flow in the desired direction opens the valve, while undesirable reverse flow forces the check valve to close. Most check valves contain a flat disc that is slightly larger in diameter than that of the port. Flow indicators on the side of the body indicate the direction of the flow for correct installation.

Spring check valves have a disc held in place by a spring, which means they and can operate in either a vertical or horizontal mounting position because they do not rely on flow pressure or direction to function. Spring check valves are available with many different types of seats, the most common being nylon, which tends to wear quickly, requiring replacement more often than more durable brass seats.

Swing check valves have a hinged disc which swings into position, and can operate in either horizontal or vertical (upward flow) positions. Movement through the line automatically swings the disc open to allow full flow, so swing check valves must be installed with normal flow opening the disc. Should reverse flow occur, the reversed pressure and the weight of the disc closes the disc back against the seat and back-flow is stopped immediately. This type of check valve offers minimal flow restriction, allowing full flow to be achieved through the valve.

Lift check valves work automatically with horizontal line pressure as the bonnet is positioned vertically above the valve, lifting up with forward flow. Like a globe valve, with its indirect line of flow, lift check valves are flow-restricting, and so are generally used as a companion to globe valves. Line pressure lifts the disc, and flow is allowed to occur. When flow reverses, the disc falls back onto its seat and immediately cuts off the flow, preventing back-flow from occurring.
