The ASTM A352 LC1 150LBS Flanged Swing Check Valve is a low-temperature, non-return valve designed to prevent reverse flow in piping systems. The body is cast from ASTM A352 LC1, a low-temperature carbon steel grade that delivers exceptional impact toughness at sub-zero temperatures down to -59°C (-75°F), making it ideal for cryogenic and cold-environment applications. The swing check design features a disc that swings on a hinge, allowing forward flow and automatically closing when flow reverses. Rated for Class 150, it is suitable for moderate-pressure systems in LNG terminals, petrochemical plants, refrigeration circuits, and offshore facilities. With flanged ends for secure, bolted installation, this valve provides reliable, maintenance-free backflow prevention with minimal pressure drop.
