Milwaukee P2519A-300 swing check valve has a disc that swings on a shaft or hinge. It is used for flood prevention in sewage systems, firefighting equipment and toilet flush mechanisms. This aluminium check valve is designed for the one-way flow of gas or liquid. It frequently utilises ball check valves, which combine balls and seats in the same valve body for a leak-free cutoff, in conjunction with diaphragm, piston and metering pumps.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What will happen if the flow through a check valve is insufficient?
A. The disc and related internal components will be in a continual state of motion if the flow through a check valve is insufficient to keep the disc in a fully open and stable position (wobble). Premature wear, loud operation, and vibration are all effects of this installation style.
Q. What flow rate should be maintained?
A. A minimum flow rate of 7.5 feet per second is ideally considered for water systems. Sometimes it is advised to lower the line size when it is difficult to sustain this flow rate.
Q. Can a swing check valve be installed upside down?
A. The flow arrow on a check valve must point in the direction of the flow when it is fitted. The chosen side must be positioned up in installations that are horizontal. Users should never install a check valve upside down.
