It allows the flow of liquids or gases in only one direction and closes automatically when the flow stops or reverses. Stainless steel is characterized by its excellent corrosion resistance and durability, which is why these valves are frequently used in aggressive environments and demanding applications, such as in the chemical and water management industries. Check valves are available in various Designs, including models with a spring mechanism or as swing check valves. They ensure high efficiency and minimize the risk of system damage due to backflow.    <\/p>\n\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Wafer Check Valve<\/h3>\nThe RK101 wafer check valve is available in various Sizes from DN40 to DN300 and impresses with its robust Design as a wafer type. Both the Body and the disc are made of high-quality 1.4408, which ensures high corrosion resistance. A special feature of this check valve is the absence of a spring return, which simplifies maintenance and extends its service life. It is designed for a maximum pressure range of up to 16 bar and has a Viton seal (<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/fergo.shop\/zwischenflansch-rueckschlagklappe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">For more seal variations<\/a><\/strong>), which ensures reliable sealing. The temperature range extends from -10\u00b0C to +180\u00b0C, enabling its use in various industrial applications.
