Valterra 200-C05F PVC Swing/Spring Combination Check Valve, Clear, 1/2" FPT
Description
This Valterra 200-C05F check valve is made of clear schedule 40 PVC (polyvinyl
chloride) for strength and resistance to corrosion and mild chemicals. Its
EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) seal resists degradation caused by
water and oils, and the swing/spring construction of this valve makes it
possible to install it in any position. It has a 1/2″ female National Pipe
Taper (NPT) threaded connection at each end, a maximum pressure rating of 150
pounds per square inch (psi), and a spring tension of 1/2 lb. This check valve
is suitable for use with landscape and irrigation, pool and spa, aquaculture,
and general purpose applications.Check valves have two ports and restrict the
flow of fluids and other loose materials through a pipe or passageway to one
direction. Flow enters through one port and exits through the other, closing
when flow reverses or stops. Two common types of check valves are ball cone
valves and swing check valves. A ball cone valve utilizes a spring-loaded ball
seated against a cone-shaped interior surface to stop the flow of fluid in a
forward direction, and a swing check valve has a movable disc on a hinge to
block reverse flow. Check valves are rated by their cracking pressure (the
minimum upstream pressure required for the valve to operate), and they are
used in various water, gas, air, and steam lines.Valterra Products
manufactures and distributes valves, hoses, sewer systems, and pool and spa
products. The company, founded in 1981, is headquartered in Mission Hills, CA.
