Steel & O’Brien’s wide range of stainless steel sanitary check valves help make sanitary simple for you and your operations. We manufacture these in a variety of sizes and pressure ratings, with multiple capabilities to help them fit into virtually any scenario you may have. These are critical for protecting your pumps and other valuable equipment from backflow caused by sudden pressure changes in your pipes.
These versatile valves are used across numerous sectors where preventing reverse flow is essential. The most prominent examples of industries that rely on these are the food and beverage and pharmaceutical sectors. In terms of design, the two most common variants of check valves are spring and ball models. The former utilizes a ball that drops from a chamber into the flow path to stop fluids, while the latter uses a spring to push a shutter against the aperture of the pipe. Both are relatively simple in design, requiring little in the way of maintenance. They also can be mounted either vertically or horizontally, making them suitable for a broad range of applications.
