check valves table of contents Protection Against Reverse Flow CHECK VALVES EXTEND SYSTEM LIFE In any liquid or gas system where reverse flow cannot be tolerated, a quick-responding check valve is a necessity. Check valves that close slowly permit flow reversal to occur in the line which can cause severe mechanical shock. As the valve finally seats, high peak pressure pulses and shock waves are generated on the downstream side due to the media being forced to a sudden stop. Upstream, the momentum is not restricted which can create voids in the flow, filling with air or vapor to cause...
