Rated working pressure is 200 psig. These check valves are suitable for horizontal or vertical installation when the flow of water is in an upward direction.
Waterous Series 600 swing check valves feature sturdy iron body and bronze mounted construction. This design provides extensive use of corrosion-resistant materials in places where corrosion may be a problem.
The disc is constructed of high-strength bronze with a rubber seal recessed into the disc to assure a positive seal even under low pressure.
Series 600 swing check valves are available in sizes 3" through 12" and are available with lever and spring or lever and weight for applications where rapid flow reversals may be encountered.
