- Engineers designed the RMD31 type back pressure valve for low-pressure applications.
- The valve adopts an outlet pressure balance method, minimizing the impact of outlet side pressure fluctuations on the primary side pressure.
- The valve body incorporates synthetic rubber, ensuring excellent sealing performance when closed.

Nominal Diameter Selection RMD31L
Please select the appropriate nominal diameter using the nominal diameter selection chart.
If the set pressure and outlet pressure fluctuate within a certain range, use the smallest pressure difference for selection.
Example of Use
- Set Pressure: 40 kPa
Outlet Pressure: 10 kPa
Temperature: 60°C
Specific Gravity: 0.6 (compared to air)
Flow Rate: 110 m³/h (Standard Condition)
Selection Process:
Pressure Adjustment:
Find the intersection of outlet pressure (10 kPa) and set pressure (40 kPa) → mark point a, then move downward.
Temperature Adjustment:
The reference temperature is 20°C (standard).
If the flow temperature is 20°C, continue straight down.
For 60°C, follow the 60°C correction line diagonally → find intersection b, then move downward.
Specific Gravity Adjustment:
The reference specific gravity is 1.0 (air).
If the fluid has a specific gravity of 1.0, continue straight down.
For 0.6, follow the 0.6 correction line diagonally → find intersection c, then move downward.
Flow Rate Adjustment:
From point c, move downward and find the intersection with 110 m³/h flow rate → mark point f.
Point f falls between nominal diameters 32 and 40.
Since choosing a larger size is recommended, nominal diameter 40 is the most suitable selection.

- Install the valve upright on a horizontal pipeline.
- If the fluid is air or similar and the outlet side is open to the atmosphere, the double-dashed line section is not required.
