5 Inch Check Valve

A 5 Inch check valve is an essential component in fluid control systems, designed to allow fluid to flow in one direction while preventing backflow. Its size, typically around DN125, makes it suitable for applications needing moderate flow rates and pressure levels. Installed in pipelines, check valves ensure that flow runs freely in one direction. If flow reverses, they automatically close, safeguarding piping, valves, and pumps from damage, particularly from water hammer—a phenomenon where sudden flow direction changes create powerful forces that can harm pipelines and components. Thus, the check valve's role in preventing such occurrences is crucial for maintaining system integrity and operational reliability.
