Wafer-Type Check Valve: Lightweight, Compact, and Reliable

The wafer-type check valve is a lightweight and compact solution designed for excellent water hammer prevention, making it ideal for a wide range of piping systems. This wafer-type check valve uses two semicircular valve bodies and a spring as its operating mechanism, which makes it significantly slimmer and more efficient than conventional swing check valves. Its design allows the wafer-type check valve to fit in tight spaces while offering reliable performance and protecting piping systems from water hammer and other related issues.

Slim and Space-Saving Design

With its lightweight and compact body, the wafer-type check valve stands out in comparison to traditional valves, particularly JIS standard swing check valves. The face-to-face distance of the wafer-type check valve is reduced by about 1/4, and its weight is decreased by around 1/5. This design not only conserves installation space but also simplifies handling during installation and maintenance. The reduced size and weight also result in lower shipping costs, making the wafer-type check valve highly cost-effective.

Ideal for Space-Constrained and Cost-Sensitive Applications

Thanks to its efficient design, the wafer-type check valve is perfect for space-constrained applications where compactness is crucial. Its lightweight nature reduces the overall load on piping systems, while its smaller size makes it easier to install. The wafer-type check valve also offers excellent cost performance by reducing installation and transportation expenses. These factors make the wafer-type check valve an ideal choice for applications requiring reliable backflow prevention in limited spaces.
