The series tilting type check valve is designed to prevent reverse flow in pipelines while ensuring smooth and reliable operation in large diameter systems.
Compared with conventional swing check valves, the tilting disc structure provides faster closing response and reduces the risk of water hammer. The valve uses a heavy hammer assisted closing mechanism that ensures stable shut-off, making it suitable for municipal water supply, pumping stations, and industrial pipelines.
This type of check valve is widely used in water treatment plants, pumping stations, power plants, and long-distance pipeline systems where flow reliability and equipment protection are critical.
Key Features
- Fast Closing to Reduce Water Hammer: The tilting disc design allows quick closure when flow stops.
- Reliable Backflow Prevention: Prevents reverse flow and protects pipeline equipment.
- Durable Materials: Body available in ductile iron, cast iron, WCB, or stainless steel.
- Low Pressure Loss: Streamlined disc minimizes flow resistance.
- Flexible Operation: Hydraulic or manual options available.

Working Principle
The valve operates using a disc that tilts open with forward flow. When the flow decreases or stops, the disc returns to the closed position assisted by the heavy hammer.
This controlled closing action prevents reverse flow and minimizes pressure shock.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is a tilting type check valve?
A: It is a non-return valve that prevents reverse flow using a tilting disc mechanism.
Q2: What is the advantage of a tilting disc check valve?
A: Faster closing response and better water hammer protection compared to swing check valves.
Q3: Where are tilting check valves commonly used?
A: Pumping stations, water treatment plants, municipal pipelines, and industrial circulation systems.
Q4: What materials are available for this valve?
A: Ductile iron, cast iron, carbon steel, stainless steel, depending on the application.
Q5: How do I select the correct valve size?
A: Match pipeline diameter, system pressure, flow velocity, and installation conditions.
