Models: 71, 71U Cast Iron SURE CHECK Valves Sizes: 2"– 54" (50 – 1350mm) TM Pressure/Temperature –Non-Shock Model Material Rating * atings are for Model 71 only. R See limitations for UL model 71U, sizes 4” - 12” Typical Service • esigned for liquids and gases where flow reversal can cause surge and water hammer. D • lastomer seats provide bubble-tight shutoff. E Features • ompact design with short face-to-face dimensions for minimum space requirements. C • ual shaft design allows interchangeability of shafts. D • orsion springs close the valve prior to flow reversal. T • orsion springs exert a lifting motion on the discs, enabling the center “heel” to open first. T This prevents excessive wear of the seat in this area, and provides a consistent wear pattern and long sealing capability. D • ownstream stop shaft stabilizes the discs at high flow rates and prevents them from striking each other, which can cause premature wear, stress on the shaft, and chattering. Construction • obust cast body is wafer style, featuring compact face-to-face dimensions. R • esigned to fit within ANSI bolt circles. D • ariety of trim and seat materials are available V Installation • an be installed horizontally or vertically. C – Consult factory for downward vertical flow applications. – In horizontal applications, shaft should be in vertical orientation. • ood piping practice recommends installing a distance of 5 to 10 pipe diameters from elbows, G pumps, or others turbulence-creating devices. • ueller Steam Specialty strongly recommends the installation of a strainer ahead of the M pump to ensure protection of both the pump and the valve from foreign particles. • pplicable ASTM, ANSI, and API standards A • M Approved F – Model 71, sizes 2” – 16” - Domestic Only • L Listed / ULC Listed U – Model 71U, sizes 4”, 6”, 8”, 10”, and 12”
