The main purpose of a brass check valve is to ensure that the fluid in the pipeline system can only flow in one direction and prevent it from flowing back. When the fluid flows normally in the pipeline, the disc (or gate plate) of the brass check valve will be pushed open by the fluid, allowing the fluid to pass smoothly. However, once the fluid tries to flow in the opposite direction, the disc will close quickly and automatically to prevent the fluid from flowing back.
This design is essential to protect the pipeline system, pumps and other equipment from damage caused by the impact of reverse fluid. For example, in a water supply system, if the water pump suddenly stops working, the water may flow back due to gravity or other pressure differences, causing damage to the water pump. The existence of the brass check valve can effectively prevent this from happening.
In addition, the choice of brass material also gives the check valve excellent corrosion resistance and durability, and can maintain stable performance under various environmental conditions. This makes the brass check valve an indispensable key component in many pipeline systems, ensuring the safety and reliability of fluid transmission.
