Check Valves

Hydraulic check valves are one of the most essential, and varied, styles of hydraulic components available today. These are essential for most hydraulic systems, and are present in a huge range of both industrial and household items. At Flowfit, we are proud to offer a diverse range of check valves from the renowned manufacturer Oleodinamica Marchesini.

Hydraulic Check Valves

A check valve is a dual-port valve, which means that they have two openings; one for the hydraulic fluid to enter and one for it to leave. Unlike many other designs of valve, these models can be used to stop the risk of backflow in the liquid damaging the system. As soon as the liquid has entered the valve, it cannot turn back and is, instead, forced around the system by the pressure of the liquid following it.

Hydraulic check valves are commonly used in pumps and a wide variety of industrial processes. They are also essential in a wide range of domestic systems, including irrigation sprinklers and solar thermal installations.

One of the most important specifications in hydraulic check valves is the cracking pressure, which is the minimum upstream pressure at which the valve will operate. Check valves are often designed specifically for systems, and so when you’re looking for a replacement, it is essential to ensure that your chosen model’s specifications match the requirements of your system.

Other terms for a check valve is a one way valve. Other similar alternatives include:
