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
