Check valves with plastic diaphragms

Low-wear check valves from the manufacturer with plastic diaphragms to protect against the backflow of liquid, pasty and gaseous media.

Technical features of our non-return armatures

Our non-return valves are equipped with a diaphragm to prevent the discharge of liquid and gaseous fluids. The special feature of the latter is a silent closing without water hammer. This anti-return device guarantees the waterproofing essential for optimal fluid management, even with granular or sandy water. Non-return valves serve as raw filters and thus secure your equipment. In addition, they do not have moving moving parts subject to wear and tear, which guarantees a long service life.

For food industries and drinking water

Installation examples of non-return armatures

The membrane is fixed in the perforated support cone and its sealing lip rests on the inner surface of the cone. When the pressure increases, the membrane deforms and allows the fluid to pass through. In the event of a pressure drop, the diaphragm returns to its initial position and closes the non-return valve.
