Swing Check Valve

The KLEP Swing Check valves – which can be installed vertically or horizontally – are designed to swing out of the line of fluid flow at maximum capacity. The seat is offset from horizontal and operates in hinge position so that gravitational action closes the valve in proportion to the reduction in fluid flow. As an optional feature, an extended hinge pin accommodates an outside lever and weight to effect closure immediately, thereby eliminating slamming. A door position indicator can also be fitted.
