AWS Apparatebau GmbH is your competent partner for valve technology, non-return valves and component assembly. With decades of experience and state-of-the-art production technology, we deliver solutions that meet the highest standards of safety, efficiency and quality. Our service portfolio ranges from the manufacture of individual components to the complete assembly of modules – including procurement, testing and documentation.

Specially developed for extreme operating conditions.
Valve technology for aggressive media and potentially explosive areas.
Components for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
Precise assemblies for safety-critical systems.
Individual solutions for complex production plants.
Hygienic versions for CIP/SIP processes.
Efficient processes for short delivery times and maximum flexibility.
The type 915 dual-plate check valve covers DN 50 to DN 900, equivalent to 2″ to 36″.
Flange connection in PN 10, 16, 25 and 40 as well as ASME Class 150 to Class 600.
The maximum operating pressure of the series is 100 bar.
Installation between flanges or as a double-flange version.
The flow force deflects the plates against a spring; closing is by spring force and back pressure.
Dual-plate check valves need a minimum flow – a valve selected too large will flutter.
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.
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.
| Feature | Value |
| Nominal sizes | DN 50 to DN 900 (2″ to 36″) |
| Flanged connection | PN 10, PN 16, PN 25 and PN 40 as well as ASME Class 150 to Class 600 |
| Design | for installation between flanges or as a double flanged version |
| Pressure | up to a maximum of 100 bar |
| Function | the 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.
With AWS we mostly supply the series version without intervention. Additionally feasible with AWS:
Valve technology, non-return valves, turned and milled parts as well as complete assemblies.
Yes, we offer custom-made products for special requirements and installation situations.
Chemicals, energy, automotive, mechanical engineering, food and more.
ISO 9001, CE, DGRL, ATEX and material-related test certificates.
