Trusted Dual Plate Check Valve Manufacturer

NTVAL provides durable Dual Plate Check Valves designed for efficient and reliable operation in demanding applications. Engineered to prevent backflow and protect your system, our valves offer cost-effective solutions that meet industry standards.

Reliable Dual Plate Check Valve

The Dual Plate Check Valve prevents reverse flow in pipelines, keeping liquids or gases moving in the intended direction. It uses two spring-loaded plates that open with forward flow and close quickly if flow reverses, effectively stopping backflow without disrupting overall flow.
 
Industries such as water distribution, oil and gas, and chemical processing commonly use this valve for its reliable function and compact, lightweight design. Easy to install, the dual-plate setup provides stability and durability, making it suitable for a range of applications that need dependable flow control.

What is Dual Plate Check Valve?

The dual plate check valve was developed to solve issues found in traditional swing and lift check valves. It uses two spring-loaded plates attached to a central hinge screw. As the flow decreases, the torsional spring action closes the plates before the flow can reverse.
 
This design prevents water hammer and ensures a non-slam operation. These features make the dual plate check valve a highly effective and efficient option, often called a “silent check valve.”

Dual-Plate Check Valve Classification

By Body Structure
Retainer-less construction ensures that the valve body is not fully drilled to fit the hinge-pin and stop-pin in a dual-plate check valve. Instead, a recess is machined. This design enhances the integrity of the valve, especially at high pressure, reducing the risk of body leaks.
By Sealing Method

Soft Seal

A soft seal means that one of the sealing parts is made from low-hardness materials. Typically, the soft seal seat is made from non-metallic materials that have a certain strength, hardness, and can tolerate high temperatures to ensure zero leakage. However, compared to metal seal valves, soft seal valves have a shorter service life and less temperature resistance.
 
Although some vendors claim that their hard seal valves can achieve zero leakage, the sealing performance is generally not as strong as that of soft seal valves. However, soft seal valves may not meet the technical requirements for corrosion resistance in certain corrosive environments.
 

Metal Seal

Both ends of the sealing pair in a hard seal valve are made of metal or other high-hardness materials. This makes the valve a hard seal or metal-to-metal seal valve. While hard seal valves may have lower sealing performance compared to soft seals, they offer higher temperature tolerance, better corrosion resistance, and stronger mechanical properties.
 
The materials used can include steel paired with steel, copper, graphite, or alloy steel. The valve components might be made from cast iron, cast bronze, alloy steel, bead welding alloy, or sprayed alloy.
By End Connection Type

Lug

Lugged type flange connections are similar to wafer types but with some differences. The lug holes are drilled so that each bolt hole on the flanges has a corresponding lug hole. Each threaded hole holds two bolts, one from each flange on opposite sides.
This setup allows for dead-end operation, where only one side of the valve is connected to a flange, and the other side is exposed to the environment, as long as the seat or retainer is securely screwed in place.
 

Wafer

In a wafer attachment, the valve is placed between the pipe flanges, and the bolts from the flanges hold it in place. Some wafer valves have centering holes to make sure they are positioned correctly between the flanges. This type of valve is the lightest option for installing between pipe flanges, making it more affordable than other types of valves.
 

Flange

The valve has a flanged end connection with bolt holes to secure the flanges to the shaft. Flanged attachments make it easier to remove and repair the valve. They are commonly used in larger valve sizes. Gaskets are necessary where the flanges connect to ensure a proper seal.
 

Butt Weld

The valve and pipe ends have the same diameter. The outer edges of both are machined to create a “valley” that is filled with welding metal. The two parts are welded together around the rims, as shown in the image. Butt welding connections are typically used for smaller diameters, usually 2 inches and below.

How Does Dual Plate Check Valve Work?

The valve plate opens when fluid pressure flows in one direction. If the fluid flows from the opposite direction, the plate impacts the valve seat, cutting off the flow. The reduced flow allows the torsion spring to close the plate, preventing any reversal in fluid flow.
 
The valve has a cylindrical body, which offers a more even stress distribution compared to other valve designs. This cylindrical construction is built to handle heavy loads and the weight or thickness of the valve. As a result, under demanding loading conditions, this valve provides a clear advantage in terms of safety and cost-effectiveness.

Features of Dual Plate Check Valve

Low Pressure Drop

The pressure drop in a dual plate check valve is notably lower than in other check valves, enabling more efficient flow and reduced energy loss.

Spring-Assisted Closing Mechanism

Each plate, half the size of a swing check disc, provides a straight flow path with minimal resistance. Spring-assisted closing begins when flow velocity dips below the set minimum.

Cushioned Closing to Reduce Slamming

The momentum generated as plates close is lower than in swing check valves. Spring-assisted closure cushions plates and seat, preventing slamming at flow reversal.

Non-Slam Design

Dual plates in the check valve are centrally mounted for horizontal setups, eliminating gravity’s effect on the plates and preventing slamming during closure.

Benefits of Dual Plate Check Valve

Minimal Wear and Tear

Low wear and tear of the seat due to its non-slamming, spring-loaded design, ensuring extended lifespan.

Reduced Water Hammer
Water hammers are almost negligible in dual-plate check valves because valve closure does not rely on backpressure and backflow.

Installation Instructions

Cleaning the Valve
The end connections of the Dual Plate Check Valves are secured by rust-proof oil. Clean the same before installation. Valve plates should be tested to verify that they are free of rust/oil.
Checking the Direction of Flow
The direction of flow in the line should match the direction of flow marked by the ‘arrow’ on the valve body and as indicated on the nameplate.
Horizontal Piping Installation
Insert the valve into the conduit such that the Pin Retainers (Plugs) are positioned up and down.
Installation Distance between Check Valve and Butterfly Valve
Ensure sufficient space between the Dual Plate Check Valve and the Butterfly Valve so that the plates of the Dual Plate Check Valve are in an open position and the Butterfly Valve disc does not touch the Dual Plate Check Valve. Also, ensure adequate distance to prevent any peripheral or irregular flow conditions.
Valve Orientation to Pump’s Discharge
When fitting the Dual Plate Check Valve to the pump, ensure that the pump flow follows the two plates of the valve for better output.
Optimal Flow Velocity
Valves are configured to operate optimally open at a line flow rate of 2 to 2.7 m/sec of water for horizontal installations. The flow velocity for vertical installation can be marginally higher. For fluids with less specific gravity, specify at the time of enquiry.
Cyclic Flow Applications
Refer to the manufacturing company for cyclic flow applications such as the outlet of reciprocating machines.
Uniform Flow Velocity Installation
Dual Plate Check Valves should be mounted where the flow velocity around the cross-section is uniform.
