DCV41

Austenitic Stainless Steel

Disc Check Valve

Description

The DCV41 is an austenitic stainless steel disc check valve available with either screwed or socket weld end connections. Its function is

to prevent reverse flow on a wide variety of fluids for applications in process lines, hot water systems, steam and condensate systems.

For oil and gas applications, a Viton seat is available.

For water applications an EPDM seat is available.

Soft seat versions provide a zero leakage rate or bubble tight shut-off, i.e. they meet EN 12266-1 Rate A, providing a differential pressure

exists. Please note that the soft seat options are not available with socket weld ends.

The shut-off of the standard valve conforms to EN 12266-1 Rate E.

When a heavy duty spring is installed with an EPDM seat, the valve is suitable for boiler feedwater check applications.

A high temperature spring version is available to operate at 400 °C.

Optional extras

Heavy duty springs (700 mbar opening pressure) for boiler feed

applications

High temperature springs

Viton soft seats for oils and gas applications - screwed only

EPDM soft seats for water applications - screwed only
