Australian Valve is a leading Check Valve Manufacturer in Australia. A check valve is a type of valve that is designed to allow fluid or gas to flow in one direction only, while preventing backflow in the opposite direction. It is also known as a non-return valve or one-way valve.
Check valves typically consist of a valve body with an inlet and an outlet, and a moving mechanism that allows fluid or gas to flow in one direction while preventing backflow in the opposite direction. The moving mechanism can be a ball, a disc, or a flapper, depending on the design of the valve.
When fluid or gas flows in the correct direction, the moving mechanism of the check valve is pushed open, allowing the fluid or gas to pass through the valve. When there is backflow in the opposite direction, the moving mechanism is pushed closed by the pressure of the fluid or gas, preventing backflow from occurring.
Australian Valve is a major Check Valve Manufacturer in Australia, supplying to Queensland, Western Australia and Melbourne.
The main function of a check valve is to ensure that fluid or gas flows in one direction only, which is important in many different types of systems. For example, in a piping system, a check valve can prevent backflow of fluid or gas, which can cause damage to equipment or contamination of the system. In a pump system, a check valve can prevent backflow of fluid, which can cause the pump to lose prime.

Advantages:
1.Prevents backflow: The main advantage of check valves is that they prevent backflow or reverse flow of fluids, which can cause damage to pumps, pipes, and other equipment. By ensuring that fluid flows in one direction only, check valves protect the system from damage and prolong the life of the equipment.
2.Saves energy: Check valves help to save energy by reducing the load on pumps and other equipment. By preventing backflow, they ensure that the system operates more efficiently, which reduces energy consumption and costs.
3.Reduces noise: Check valves help to reduce noise in the system by preventing water hammer or other forms of pressure surges that can cause noise and vibration.
