DUAL PLATE CHECK VALVES A TECHNICAL PRESENTATION Home

Function Of Check Valve “ THE CHECK VALVE ( NRV OR REFLUX VALVE ) IS A PROTECTIVE DEVICE TO PREVENT REVERSE RUN OF EQUIPMENT AND IS THERE TO SLOW DOWN THE FLOW IN THE REVERSE DIRECTION OR TO CUT THE MASS FLOW RATE DOWN TO ABOUT 1 TO 5 % IN THE BACKWARD DIRECTION OF W HAT THE FORWARD FLOW IS”. - RONALD C. MERRICK Home

For Reliable Check Valve Functions WHAT YOU DO NOT WANT: • Valve Slamming • Valve induced Water Hammer • Excessive Head loss/Energy loss • Excessive weight & volume • Higher cost - capital & life cycle • Damage & Damage control mechanism UNFORTUNATELY, SWING CHECK HAS ALL THIS Home

Types Of Check Valves • Swing Check Valve • Dual Plate Check Valve Wafer Type, Lugged Type Double & Mono-Flanged Type Special end connections (RTJ, Hub-ended) Home

Advantages At A Glance Dual Plate Check Valve V/S Swing Check Valve SWING CHECK VALVE DUAL PLATE CHECK VALVE • • • Light Weight thus easier handling and self Supporting. More compact & structurally sound design. • Same valve can be installed horizontally or vertically. Only Check Valve which can be installed for flow upside down due to spring assisted closure. Low pressure Drop & reduced Energy Loss irrespective of Pressure Ratings. • Streamlined Flow-way Efficient & Positive sealing under most flow & pressure conditions. Valve closes before flow reversal, at zero velocity. Inherently Non-Slamming, No external devices / attachments required. Water Hammer almost non-existent Long Life and trouble free operation. • • Home • • • Bulky & voluminous thus cumbersome handling & heavier supporting system. Large & difficult to analyse from stress concentration point in critical application due to intricate body shape. Suitable primarily for horizontal application. Not Possible Significant Pressure Loss & Energy Loss, which is still higher for higher pressure ratings. Swing restricted flow-way. Always require reverse flow for closure & back pressure for effective sealing. External attachments required to counteract slamming. Water Hammer tendency persists. Seat & Hinge Pin require regular maintenance due to impact loads & wear by rubbing.

Dual Plate Check Valve - Design Advantages • Compact, Light and Rugged Design • Low Pressure Drop-thus, Lower Energy Loss. • Total flexibility in installation - Horizontal to Vertical. • Valve closure at zero velocity : Hence, ‘No valveinduced Water Hammer’. • Inherently non-slamming design without any external fitments. • Technically Superior always to Swing Check Valve including multi-door Swing Check Valve. • An Economic Solution right through.

Global Scene On Check Valves • Swing Check Valves above 12”/16” generally need external Anti Slamming Device(s) making it further unwieldy and expensive - first cost & maintenance. • After initial inertia of rethinking and limited sources of reliable suppliers in the past, the switchover from Mass Movement to Spring Actuation has taken place now. • Improvement in availability and increasing competitiveness of Dual Plate Check Valves has changed the preference to Dual Plate Check Valves all over in process as well as in water management industries. • Dual Plate Check Valves upto 12” are available even in ratings upto ANSI 2500 and API 5000 besides sizes upto 72” in lower ratings being most versatile design of Check Valve. • In India too, trend of switching over to Dual Plate Check Valve is quite noticeable after overcoming initial inertia of rethinking & apprehensions about its high costs. Home

Global Trends Switch over to Wafer Check Valve (dual plate type ) is going on noticeably in Refineries , Petrochemicals and Process Industries besides general industries. Wherever Swing Check Valves are specified by process licensors and / or PMCs/EPCs as general specifications , switchover to Dual Plate Check Valves is generally welcome but not vice-versa. SWING CHECK VALVES ARE ON THEIR WAY OUT Home
