ABOUT CHECK VALVE
A check valve prevents backflow by being unidirectional. Manufacturers of check valves also refer to these valves as non-return valves or one-way check valves. Check valves work automatically, so they do not require a wheel or actuator. If backflow or contamination is imminent, a check valve should be considered. Accordingly, the lone inlet and outlet should be oriented in the right way to ensure that the check valves work properly.
