Product Description
The AMERICAN Series 2100 resilient seated check valve is simple, durable and eliminates most problems associated with metal-seated swing check valves. The Series 2100 features a compact ductile iron body and bonnet. Ductile iron has more than twice the tensile strength of gray cast iron. The check valve fully complies with ANSI/AWWA C508.
The disc is made of ductile iron, a stainless steel shaft and nylon reinforcement, and encapsulated with EPDM rubber. The Series 2100 Valve is rated for 250 psig. The valve seals with zero leakage at pressures above 5 psig. In flow conditions the waterway is unobstructed.
This valve is designed to minimize disc slam. The disc only has to travel 35 degrees from full open to full closed. This allows the valve to close before flow reversal in most applications.
There is only one moving part, thus minimizing maintenance. Should the disc be damaged, it can be reversed and the valve put back into immediate service.
The Series 2100 resilient seated check valve has these advantages over traditional metal-seated swing check valves:
250 psig rating
Ductile iron body, bonnet and disc
Fusion-bonded-epoxy coating inside and outside
Does not require outside lever, weight or spring
Only one moving part
No O-Rings, packing, pins or bearings to wear out
No bronze seat ring to wear or need replacing
Zero leakage at pressures above 5 psig
Suitable for buried service
The 100% unobstructed flow area is free of pockets that can trap debris
A factory-installed backflushing actuator can be furnished as an option. This device is useful for priming pumps, backflushing, draining lines and system testing
Available in optional hydrant security configuration
