Bronze Swing Check Valve
Bronze Swing Check Valves are non-return valves designed to automatically prevent backflow in piping systems. Their excellent corrosion resistance makes them ideal for seawater, desalination, chemical, and offshore applications.
Overview
Bronze swing check valves, also known as bronze non-return valves, are designed to allow fluid flow in one direction only and automatically prevent reverse flow. The valve disc opens and closes solely by the force of the flowing medium.
