FAQ

How does the Bray/Rite double door check valve reduce water hammer risk during pump system shutdown or flow reversal?

The valve features lightweight dual discs and independent spring design. When flow decreases or reverses, the springs push the discs to close quickly, and the cushioned sealing reduces closing impact, thereby lowering the potential for water hammer. It is suitable for pump protection and pipelines requiring water hammer reduction.

What is the opening pressure and head loss performance of the double door check valve?

The lightweight disc combined with spring-loaded design enables low opening pressure, helping to reduce system energy consumption. The body features a short, straight flow path design to minimize turbulence and reduce head loss. Specific performance should be confirmed based on actual model and application conditions.

What sizes, body materials, and seat material options are available for the Bray double door check valve?

The size range is 2 inches to 12 inches (50 mm to 300 mm); body materials include ductile iron or stainless steel, disc material is SS316. Seat materials include EPDM and Buna-N, gasket material is PTFE. Specific configuration should be confirmed based on actual model and application conditions.

How to choose between EPDM and Buna-N seat for the double door check valve based on media temperature?

With EPDM seat, the temperature range is -50°F to 300°F; with Buna-N seat, the temperature range is -40°F to 250°F. Selection should consider media temperature, media compatibility, and system operating conditions to confirm the appropriate seat configuration.

What are the installation standards, pressure rating, and testing requirements for this double door check valve?

This product is a wafer swing check valve with face-to-face dimensions per API 594, design standard API 594, sealing and testing standard API 598, and maximum allowable working pressure Class 150. Product certifications include CE, CRN, NSF-61, and PED. Installation should ensure the valve model, pipe size, and application conditions are compatible.
