The 600LBS Flanged Ball Check Valve F304/F316 is a high-pressure, non-return valve designed for automatic backflow prevention in demanding industrial systems. Constructed from F304 (CF8) or F316 (CF8M) stainless steel castings, it offers excellent corrosion resistance and durability across a wide range of aggressive media. The ball check design utilizes a spherical ball that seats against a precision-machined seal, providing bubble-tight shut-off with minimal pressure drop during forward flow. Rated for Class 600, it is capable of handling high-pressure applications in oil and gas, petrochemical, chemical processing, and power generation. The flanged ends ensure secure, leak-proof installation, while the compact design allows for vertical or horizontal mounting, making it an ideal choice for systems requiring reliable, low-maintenance flow reversal protection.
Technical Attributes & Specifications
1. **Body Material:** Forged Stainless Steel ASTM A182 F304 or F316.
2. **Pressure Class:** ASME Class 600 (600LBS).
3. **Connection Type:** Flanged (Raised Face or Ring Type Joint) per ASME B16.5.
4. **Ball Material:** Solid Stainless Steel (SS304/SS316) or hollow ball for low-pressure seating.
5. **Design Standard:** ASME B16.34, API 6D, or BS 5352.
6. **Face-to-Face:** Compliant with ASME B16.10.
7. **Seating:** Metal-to-metal or Resilient (Viton/PTFE) for bubble-tight shut-off.
8. **Flow Direction:** Unidirectional (indicated by flow arrow on body).
