Check Valve: 1/4" Pipe MPN:6010090

The check valve is an essential device used to ensure one-way fluid flow through a pipe system or vessel. Its primary function is to prevent backflow or back siphonage by allowing fluid to flow freely in one direction while blocking the reverse flow due to changes in pressure, such as those caused by pump shutdown or system maintenance. The quarter-inch pipe size of this check valve makes it suitable for use in small diameter pipe systems, where maintaining proper flow control is crucial to system integrity and efficiency. The stainless steel construction ensures durability, corrosion resistance, and strength against high pressures. Additionally, its compact size allows easy installation in tight spaces without impeding system operation or reducing overall system efficiency. Overall, the check valve offers cost-effective and reliable fluid flow control for various industries including chemical processing plants, water treatment facilities, oil & gas operations, and many more where accurate fluid flow regulation is imperative to maintain optimal equipment functioning and safety.
