check valve

Structure instruction

  The product is designed and manufactured according to API Spec 6AEquipment Specification of Wellhead & Xmas treeand matched and interchangeable with any equipment which conforms to API 6A specification.

  It creates the metal-to-metal seal by the pressure of the medium, the more it is, the better the sealing effect is. Anytime the valve chamber can bear the pressure of the pipeline.

  Valve body is machined of alloy steel forging with a stronger machinery properties and reliable performance.

  Bonnet is connected with valve body with bolt, the seals include the sealing ring in the bonnet and the seal in the valve body;

  The sealing face between valve core and valve body is welded with hard alloy with good abrasion resistance and anti-scour; the valve core is made of sulfide resistance steel and others adopt the process of hardness limit so the valve is able to be used in H2S condition.

Operation instruction

   According to medium flow direction and by the flow direction indicating plate of the valve, the valve is installed. As positive  flowing, the medium lifts the valve core and pass easily; If no positive medium pressure, valve core will self-shut off valve gate under self-weight and springs tensile force, the back medium flowing stop.

 Maintenances

  The valve should be placed in the dry and airy room, and the inlet and outlet are sealed properly.

  When the product is stored, the end flanges should be coated by oil against rust and dirt pollution.
