FCT Single Plate Wafer Check Valve

FCT Single Plate Wafer Check Valve

FCT Single Plate Wafer Check Valve – Space-Efficient Backflow Control

FCT single plate wafer check valves are built for cost-effective and compact backflow prevention in systems where space, weight, and installation time are critical factors. The single disc opens with minimal pressure and closes rapidly to prevent reverse flow—making it suitable for a wide range of applications including HVAC, water distribution, chemical processing, and gas systems.

With a wafer-type body, this valve fits easily between standard flanges and can be mounted in horizontal or vertical pipelines.
