GA Figure 7125T

Size: 3" to 36"
Type: Check Valve

The GA Industries Tilting Disc Check Valve features a streamlined design and full flow area for lower full open head loss than conventional swing check valves.Its energy efficient operation is combined with a short 40-degree disc stroke that provides quick closing valve to minimize hammer. __The valve employs offset seating technology to smoothly lift the disc off of the seat during opening and into the seat during closing without binding or sticking. __The top mounted oil dashpot is mechanically attached to the valve disc.Its self-contained hydraulic system controls the valve's opening and closing speed over its full stroke with an independently adjustable final closing speed engaged during the last 10% of closure.Reverse flow occurs during closure which can reduce pressure surge.The top mounted dashpot is recommended when there is likelihood of extremely rapid flow reversal.
