Check valves are usually installed in the tube line to prevent backflow. A check valve is basically a one-way valve, in which the flow can run freely one way, but if the flow turns the valve will close to protect the piping, other valves, pumps etc. Check valves are used in many different applications. They are often placed on the outlet side of a pump, to protect the pump from backflow. The check valves are installed here to make sure that the coolant is not flushing back down. If the flow turns and no check valve is installed, a water hammer can occur. Water hammer often occurs with an extreme force and will easily damage a pipeline or components. In order to make sure the check valve protects the system properly, each system has to be assessed individually, and factors such as the risk of water hammer, acceptable pressure loss, and the financial consequence of installing a check valve with a too high safety margin against water hammer have to be considered. Check valves are extensively used in the oil and gas production industries and are specifically designed for flow control in the most demanding and hazardous service conditions. A check valve controls the flow direction of fluids and are available in various configurations depending on the application.

Check valves ensures gasses or liquids are flowing in the right direction and create tight seals to prevent leaks. By controlling the flow of liquids, check valves protect pumps and compressors from serious damage. The check valves that Nascent offers are inspected on a variety of parameters to ensure that we deliver a defect-free range to the customer. These check valves are capable of operating in any spatial orientation due to their reliable tubing assembly and stainless-steel seat type construction. Additionally, Nascent offers a high-quality selection of check valves at a competitive price. The main work of a check valve is to prevent reverse flow, which can damage pumps and other mechanisms. This aspect of a check valves operation requires that they be resilient and durable and be made of high-quality materials.
