The Cla-Val 580 Series Silent Wafer Check Valve has a spring-loaded poppet that allows the valve to close before flow reversal occurs, resulting in a silent, non-slam closure. It is a truly silent check valve. For ease of installation, the valve can be installed in vertical or horizontal positions with flow up or flow down. The short lay length of the valve allows for a space-saving design. Silent Wafer Check Valves are available in sizes 2” to 10,” with either a 125 lb. or 250 lb. pressure class rating.
Constructed of an epoxy coated ductile iron body with stainless steel trim, the Cla-Val Silent Wafer Check Valve offers watertight shutoff with metal-to-metal seating. For special
applications, Buna-N® resilient seats are available as options.
All materials conform to ASTM specifications, ensuring long lasting reliable performance. As a confirmation of Cla-Val’s commitment to quality, all Series 580 125/250# class valves are
Factory Mutual approved except those supplied with Buna-N® resilient seats.
The silent wafer check valve shall consist of a heavy ductile iron body, stainless steel seat, disc, and steel spring. The valve disc shall be center guided at both ends with an integral shaft and shall be spring loaded for silent operation. The spring shall be helical or conical and stone tumbled to achieve a micro-finish to resist mineral deposits. For ease of maintenance, the seat and disc shall be replaceable in the field.
Check valve shall be capable of silent operation when installed in vertical or horizontal ositions with either flow up or flow down. The flow area through the body shall be equal to or greater than the cross-section area of the equivalent pipe size.
