Frequently Asked Questions
The valve uses the gravity potential of an external weight to assist disc closing, providing additional closing torque for a faster and more reliable closing action.
The additional closing torque and faster closing action are intended to reduce or eliminate pump-shutdown water hammer, as stated in the original product description.
The valve opens and closes automatically through medium flow, while the weight provides gravity-assisted closing.
Listed applications include water supply and drainage, water conservancy, power and petrochemical industries.
Provide the medium, flow conditions, pump operating scenario, size, pressure, body material, connection, quantity and project documentation for technical review.
Product Overview
The Vornet Swing Weight-Loaded Check Valve is an automatic backflow-prevention valve that combines medium-flow operation with gravity-assisted disc closing. An external weight provides additional closing torque as the valve returns to the closed position.
The weight-assisted mechanism is intended to produce faster and more reliable closing. According to the original product information, this action can effectively reduce or eliminate water hammer associated with pump shutdown.
The product is listed for water supply and drainage, water conservancy, power and petrochemical applications. Available body materials and RF/BW/RTJ connections can be reviewed against actual pipeline and operating conditions.
- Gravity-Assisted Closing: The weight supplements the disc-closing action.
- Additional Closing Torque: Supports faster and more reliable closure.
- Water-Hammer Control: Intended to reduce pump-shutdown water hammer.
- Industrial Applications: Listed for water, power and petrochemical systems.
