Specification
DN100 PN16 Cast Steel Wafer Type Single Disc Swing Check Valve
I. Product Overview
II. Key Attribute Parameters
- Size: DN100 (4″), optimized for medium-diameter pipelines in industrial flow control systems.
- Pressure Rating: PN16 (1.6MPa), suitable for low to medium pressure applications such as water distribution and oil transfer lines.
- Temperature Range: -196℃~550℃, with cast steel (WCB) handling high temperatures and stainless steel (304/316) adapting to extreme cold or corrosive environments.
- Material Configuration:
- Body: Cast steel (QT450/WCB) for structural strength; optional 304/316 stainless steel for corrosion resistance.
- Disc & Hinge: Cast steel or stainless steel, ensuring smooth swing movement and wear resistance.
- Seal: Metal-to-metal (for high temperature) or PTFE-lined (for tight shut-off), preventing leakage under pressure.
- Fasteners: High-strength alloy steel, resisting vibration and pressure-induced loosening.
- Connection Type: Wafer type, fitting between pipeline flanges to save installation space without flanges on the valve body.
- Applicable Media: Water, gas, oil, acid, alkali, and hydraulic fluids.
- Design Standards: GB, API 6D, DIN, ensuring compatibility with global industrial systems.
Product Overview
III. Features Description
- Single Disc Swing Structure: The disc swings open under forward flow (driven by media pressure) and closes automatically via gravity when flow stops or reverses. This instant response (≤1 second) prevents backflow that could damage pumps, mix media, or cause pipeline overpressure—critical for hydraulic and chemical systems.
- Wafer Type Design: The valve body lacks flanges, fitting directly between pipeline flanges and secured with long bolts. This reduces overall length by 30% compared to flanged check valves, saving space in compact installations like water treatment plants or skid-mounted equipment.
- Dual Seal Options: Metal-to-metal sealing suits high-temperature media (up to 550℃) such as steam, while PTFE-lined seals achieve ANSI/FCI Class IV leakage for low-temperature, clean media like drinking water—enhancing versatility across applications.
- Cast Steel Durability: QT450/WCB cast steel resists deformation under PN16 pressure and mechanical impact, with a smooth internal surface (Ra ≤1.6μm) minimizing flow resistance and avoiding media stagnation.
- Wide Temperature Adaptability: From cryogenic fluids (-196℃) to high-temperature steam (550℃), the valve maintains structural integrity—eliminating the need for separate valves in systems with temperature fluctuations.
IV. Manufacturing Processes
- Material Preparation: Cast steel ingots undergo ultrasonic testing to detect internal defects. Chemical analysis verifies carbon content (2.5~3.5% for QT450) to ensure strength and toughness.
- Body & Disc Machining: CNC lathes precision-machine the wafer body to flatness tolerance ≤0.05mm, ensuring tight contact with pipeline flanges. The disc is ground to a smooth edge (Ra ≤0.8μm) for seamless swing movement.
- Hinge Assembly: The hinge pin is press-fitted into the body with clearance ≤0.1mm, allowing the disc to swing freely without jamming. A 100-cycle test confirms smooth operation under simulated flow conditions.
- Seal Processing: Metal seats are lapped with the disc to achieve uniform contact; PTFE seals are bonded to the seat via high-temperature adhesive, with pressure testing (0.6MPa air) to verify adhesion.
- Testing:
- Hydrostatic Test: Body tested at 2.4MPa (1.5×PN16) for 30 minutes; seat tested at 1.76MPa (1.1×PN16) with water to confirm no backflow leakage.
- Operation Test: Simulated forward/reverse flow tests verify disc closure speed and sealing performance.

V. Product Advantages
- Space-Saving Installation: Wafer type design reduces pipeline length, lowering installation costs by 20% in space-constrained systems like industrial skids or building utility rooms.
- Reliable Backflow Prevention: Instant disc closure avoids pump cavitation and media mixing, reducing maintenance costs by 40% compared to slow-closing check valves.
- Durable in Harsh Conditions: Cast steel construction resists corrosion and pressure, extending service life to 10+ years in industrial environments—outperforming plastic or brass valves.
- Low Flow Resistance: Streamlined internal design minimizes pressure drop by 15% vs. lift check valves, improving energy efficiency in water and oil transfer lines.
- Easy Maintenance: Wafer type allows quick removal for cleaning or seal replacement without disconnecting adjacent pipelines, reducing downtime.
Application
VI. Application Fields
- Water Supply & Drainage: Prevents backflow in municipal water distribution and wastewater lines, with PTFE seals ensuring no contamination between clean and untreated water.
- Hydraulic Systems: Protects pumps and cylinders in industrial hydraulic circuits, avoiding oil backflow that could cause equipment failure.
- Chemical Processing: Controls flow of mild acids/alkalis in dosing lines, with stainless steel options resisting corrosion and metal seals handling high-temperature reactants.
- Petroleum Auxiliary Systems: Manages low-pressure oil and gas flow in refineries, with cast steel resisting hydrocarbon-induced wear.
- Heating & Ventilation: Regulates hot water and steam flow in building heating systems, where metal-to-metal seals withstand high temperatures.
