Characteristics
The NAF-Check valve is available in BS, DIN and SS
standards in carbon steel and stainless steel. It is also
available in ANSI and API standards - see catalogue sheet
Fk 30.71GB. Characteristics for the valve type are:

· Suitable for all usable flange standards

· Short face-to-face length - invaluable where
space is limited
· Low weight results in low handling costs and
ease of installation
· Low pressure drop and low opening pressure
· Fully open with water velocity of only 0.6 m/s -
without closing spring
· Excellent tightness, better than demanded in
API 598
· Rapid response - oblique seat reduces closing
travel
· Can be furnished with auxilliary spring to reduce
water hammer in liquid media

Selection of Valve Size and Pressure Drop

In pipes with steam or gases (compressible media) it
is important to check that the valve is fully open and the
disc thus pressed against the stop at all normal operating
conditions. This in order to avoid disc flutter giving noise
and shorter valve life.

The dynamic opening force on the disc depends on den-

sity of the medium and flow velocity in the pipe. Use the
diagram in fig. 1. Set the value of ρxv2 on the horizontal
axis and check the curves.
Depending on installation position, the valve without auxi-
liary spring is fully open if the value ρxv2 on the horizon-
tal axis is larger than 200 (point 2-E) in a vertical pipe, or
400 (point 2-C) in a horizontal pipe. Select a smaller size
if the valve is not fully open.

Valves with auxiliary spring, which we only recommend for

use in liquids - at the risk of water hammer - the correspon-
ding values are 880 (point 1-D) and 1000 (point 1-B). Read
the pressure drop across fully open valve on the vertical
axis and at the intersection of the straight line ”Fully open
valve”. The pressure drop is larger if the valve is not fully
open (follow resp. line regarding pipe and spring).
The curves in fig. 1 represent sizes up to DN 250.The pressure
drop is lower for larger sizes. Reduce the diagram pressure
drop values with following factors:

DN 300 -350 factor 0.89

DN 400 - 700 factor 0.83
DN 750 - 1000 factor 0.78

With flow rate - in water - known in m3/h the pressure drop

across the valve can be read directly in the diagram - fig. 2.
