Low Pressure Check Valves

BuTech ball check valves prevent reverse flow where leak-tight shutoff is not necessary. Standard materials of construction are 316 stainless steel with 17-4PH poppet for longer life, and 300 series stainless steel spring. BuTech offers both a Ball Check and Soft Seat check valve variation.

Note: For 316 stainless steel wetted parts, add -316WP to the catalog number.

Cracking pressure: 15 PSI (1 bar) approximate

Operating Temperature Range: 0 to 650 F (-18° to +343°C)

BuTech o-ring check valves reliably prevent backflow where leak-tight shutoff for liquids or gases is required. Standard materials of construction are 316 stainless steel with Buna-N o-ring and 300 series stainless steel spring.

Cracking pressure: 15 PSI (1 bar) approximate.

Operating Temperature Ranges:

O-ring Material	Operating Temperature Range	Catalog Suffix
