BRASS CHECK VALVES<br />

SAFETY CLASS EA<br />

4<br />

Application<br />

<strong>Watts</strong> Ocean's brass check valves prevent backflow of potable water with an<br />

unknown quality. The check valve's function and tightness can be tested without<br />

the need for disassembly. <strong>Brass</strong> check valves can be used both in domestic and<br />

in other applications.<br />

Special characteristics<br />

Operation<br />

The pressure of the liquid flowing in presses the valve against the torpedo,<br />

creating an opening. The patented split valve stem guarantees motion-free<br />

guidance between the valve and the torpedo. When the liquid pressure drops,<br />

the valve is closed according to the Lipseal sealing principle.<br />

1. Valve open. 2. Initial closing. 3. Total closure.<br />

This Lipseal sealing principle works as follows:<br />

1. Valve open. Liquid pressure keeps the valve open.<br />

2. Initial closing. Without counter pressure, the valve pushes the rubber<br />

diaphragm outward, already sealing the inlet.<br />

3. Total closure. The rubber diaphragm is pushed outward completely by<br />

the valve. The counter pressure pushes the rubber diaphragm flush<br />

against the valve, thus sealing the inlet completely.<br />
