Recommendations for Installed Position
Position the check valve to
promote smooth flow. Allow
clearance for disc movement.
Install the valve in horizontal or
upward flow for proper
valve closure.

Note: Swing check valves should

not be used in reciprocating

Notes: 1. Curves are for water at 60 ˚F. Flow- Gallons per Minute
2. Feet of water x .4335 = psi drop.
3. Use curves for estimating purposes only, performance is based upon ideal inlet and outlet conditions with no springs or weights.
Since spring and /or weight requirements for acceptable operation may vary from system to system, their effects must be added.
