Industrial Check Valves for Reliable Flow Protection
Engineered check valve solutions designed to help prevent reverse flow and support reliable operation across industrial piping and process systems.
Reliable Protection Against Reverse Flow
Check valves are designed to permit fluid flow in one direction while helping prevent unwanted reverse flow through a piping system.
FMV Valve Automation offers a range of check valve configurations for different industrial service requirements and installation conditions.
Our current range includes Dual Plate, Forged Steel, Pressure Seal and Swing Type Check Valves, providing options for a variety of industrial applications.
Check Valve Types for Industrial Applications
Select the appropriate check valve configuration according to flow requirements, installation arrangement, process conditions and service requirements.
Dual Plate Check Valves
Compact check valve configuration using two spring-assisted plates to allow forward flow and help prevent reverse flow.
View Product →Forged Steel Check Valves
Forged construction designed for industrial applications where robust valve construction and dependable non-return service are required.
View Product →Pressure Seal Check Valves
Pressure seal configuration intended for demanding industrial services where pressure-assisted sealing is an important design consideration.
View Product →Swing Type Check Valves
Swing-type configuration designed to permit forward flow while the disc returns toward its closed position when reverse flow occurs.
View Product →Designed for Reliable Non-Return Service
Check valves are an important part of many piping systems where controlling the direction of flow and reducing reverse-flow risks are required.
Reverse Flow Protection
Designed to help prevent unwanted flow reversal within piping and process systems.
Automatic Operation
Check valves operate based on flow conditions without requiring routine manual operation.
Multiple Designs
Different check valve configurations allow selection according to system requirements.
Industrial Applications
Suitable for process, utility and industrial fluid handling systems.
Flow Direction Control
Supports one-directional flow requirements in industrial piping arrangements.
Application Flexibility
Multiple configurations provide flexibility for different installation and service conditions.
Simple Flow Direction Control
A check valve responds to the pressure and flow conditions within the piping system. When flow moves in the intended direction, the valve opens.
When flow attempts to reverse, the closing mechanism moves toward the closed position, helping restrict reverse flow.
