Nominal sizes, pressure ratings and designs at AWS

DN 50 to DN 900

The type 915 dual-plate check valve covers DN 50 to DN 900, equivalent to 2″ to 36″.

PN 10 to PN 40

Flange connection in PN 10, 16, 25 and 40 as well as ASME Class 150 to Class 600.

Bis 100 bar

The maximum operating pressure of the series is 100 bar.

Wafer or double flange

Installation between flanges or as a double-flange version.

Spring-loaded plates

The flow force deflects the plates against a spring; closing is by spring force and back pressure.

Mind the sizing

Dual-plate check valves need a minimum flow – a valve selected too large will flutter.

The AWS range at Armaturenfabrik

We trade in valves from AWS Apparatebau and supply from the manufacturer range. The dual plate check valve type 915 is the series we supply most often – we can source the complete AWS range, including series not listed here.

Dual plate check valve type 915

The dual plate design is the compact answer to backflow prevention: two spring-loaded plates swing about a central shaft instead of a single disc being lifted. This gives a short face-to-face length in the wafer range and low weight – the decisive advantage at large nominal sizes in particular.

Functionthe flow force deflects the plates against a spring – closing is by spring force and back pressure

Important for sizing: dual plate check valves need a minimum flow in order to open fully. With strongly fluctuating or very low flow the nominal size therefore needs checking – an oversized valve will flutter.

Optional: adaptations to AWS check valves

With AWS we mostly supply the series version without intervention. Additionally feasible with AWS:

  • pressure rating from PN 10 to PN 40 or Class 150 to 600 depending on the flange pattern
  • wafer or double flanged version according to the installation situation
  • seat and sealing material determined by the medium
  • valve assembled with a flange set and acceptance documentation
