Check valve RK86

High-pressure valve for steam and aggressive media up to 400°C and PN40.

Data sheet

Product information

The check valve RK86 from GESTRA is the perfect solution for high-pressure and high-temperature applications. With its robust construction in chrome steel and stainless steel, spring-loaded function and compact design it offers maximum safety and reliability in power plant, chemical and process plants.

Special features

  • Wafer version to EN 1092, PN10/16/25/40
  • ASME Class 125/150/300 optional
  • Body in chrome steel or stainless steel (RK86A for higher temperatures)
  • Temperature range: -10°C to +400°C (RK86), up to +550°C (RK86A)
  • Pressure rating: PN40 (ASME Class 300 up to 51.1 bar)
  • Sitzdichtung: Metallisch (optional EPDM, FPM, PTFE)
  • Any installation position (horizontal or vertical)
  • With an earthing connection as standard

Advantages

  • M8 earthing connection as standard
  • Pressure ratings PN 10 to PN 40 as well as ASME Class 125 to Class 300
  • PTFE seal and Nimonic springs available
  • Approved for fluid group 1 media

Versions

  • Sizes: DN15-DN200
  • Materials:
    RK86: Chromstahl / Stahlguss
    RK86A: stainless steel for higher temperatures and aggressive media
  • Special versions:
    PTFE seal for aggressive media
    Nimonic® springs for extreme temperatures
    Silicone-free, oil-free and grease-free, travel limitation for reduced flow rates

Areas of application

  • Steam, hot water and process lines
  • Medien the Fluidgruppe 1 and 2
  • Applications with an earthing requirement through the M8 connection
  • International projects up to ASME Class 300

Selection and installation

The standard M8 earthing connection is decisive in hazardous zones – it prevents electrostatic charging of the wafer valve. Nimonic springs are the more durable choice at high temperatures.
