Axial disc or guided check valve
Automatic backflow prevention you can rely on
ARI CHECKO check valves allow fluid to flow in one direction and shut off automatically when the flow reverses. The CHECKO-D features a spring-loaded disc within a compact wafer-style body. The CHECKO-V incorporates a guided lift plug design, available in straight-through, angle-type, or Y-pattern body configurations depending on the model. VAMECA provides the technical expertise to help you select the optimal design for your industrial piping systems.
