How check valves work ?

Check valve is to rely on the flow of the medium itself and automatically open and close the valve disc, used to prevent the media flow back valve, also known as check valve, one-way valve, reverse flow valve and back pressure valve. Check valve is a kind of automatic valve, the main function is to prevent media backflow, prevent pump and drive motor reverse, as well as the discharge of container medium. Check valves can also be used to supply lines in which pressure may rise to exceed system pressure in the auxiliary system. Check valve can be divided into swing check valve according to the center of gravity rotation and lifting check valve along the axis of movement. The function of this type of valve is to allow the medium to flow in only one direction and to prevent the flow in the opposite direction. Usually the valve is automatic, under the pressure of a flow of fluid in one direction, the disc opens; When the fluid flows in the opposite direction, the self-coincidence disc of the fluid pressure and the disc acts on the seat, thus cutting off the flow. Check valve belongs to this type of valve, it includes swing check valve and lifting check valve. Swing check valves have a hinge mechanism and a gate like disc that rests freely on the tilted seat surface. In order to ensure that the disc can reach the seat face every time the appropriate position, the disc design in the hinge mechanism, so that the disc has enough space to swing, and make the disc real, full contact with the seat. Discs can be made entirely of metal, metal inlaid with leather, rubber, or synthetic cover, depending on performance requirements. Swing check valves allow virtually no obstruction of fluid pressure when fully open, so the pressure drop through the valve is relatively small. The disc of the lift check valve is located on the seat sealing surface of the body. This valve in addition to the valve disc can be free to rise and fall, part of the period as the globe valve, fluid pressure to lift the disc from the seat sealing surface, media backflow causes the disc to fall back to the seat, and cut off the flow. According to the conditions of use, the disc can be all metal structure, can also be in the disc frame inlaid with rubber pad or rubber ring form. Like globe valve – - fluid through the lifting check valve channel is narrow, so the lifting check valve pressure drop than swing check valve, and swing check valve flow is limited by few.
