DIN LIFT TYPE CHECK VALVE MANUFACTURER

The DIN Flange End Spring Loaded Lift Type Check Valve represents a reliable, efficient, and standardized solution for fluid control systems requiring automatic non-return protection. Its robust design, spring-assisted closure, and superior sealing performance make it ideal for critical flow applications across multiple industries. With compliance to DIN and EN standards, the valve ensures long-term dependability, easy maintenance, and compatibility with international piping systems.

    1. Introduction

    The DIN Flange End Spring Loaded Lift Type Check Valve is a precision-engineered non-return valve designed for use in industrial piping systems where fluid backflow prevention is critical. Built according to DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung) standards, this valve type ensures compatibility with European and international piping systems. Its spring-loaded lift mechanism allows for fast, automatic closure under reverse flow conditions, providing reliable protection for pumps, compressors, and other upstream equipment.
    These valves are widely used in oil and gas, petrochemical, power generation, water treatment, and general industrial applications, where they help maintain flow direction integrity and prevent potential damage caused by fluid reversal.

    2. Design Standards and Compliance

    The DIN Flange End Lift Check Valve is designed and manufactured in accordance with DIN EN 12334 or DIN 3356 standards, depending on the specific configuration. Pressure-temperature ratings typically follow DIN EN 1092-1 for flanged connections, ensuring interchangeability and safe operation under varying conditions.
    Key design codes and reference standards include:
    Design standard
    DIN EN 12334 / DIN 3356
    Flange connection
    DIN EN 1092-1 (PN 10, PN 16, PN 25, PN 40)
    Face-to-face dimensions
    DIN EN 558
    Testing standard
    DIN EN 12266-1 (hydrostatic and seat leakage tests)
    Inspection
    EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 certification available upon request
    The valve body is designed to provide streamlined flow and minimal pressure drop. The vertical lift disc operates within a guiding cage or seat bore, and a stainless-steel spring ensures quick closure when backflow occurs. This combination of lift mechanism and spring assist enhances sealing reliability and response time.

    3. Material Specifications

    The Spring Loaded Lift Type Check Valve consists of several precision components, each contributing to its performance and durability. Material selection complies with both DIN and EN standards to suit various service conditions, including high-temperature and corrosive environments.

    4. Working Principle


    The spring-loaded lift type check valve operates automatically under flow pressure without external actuation. When fluid flows in the correct direction (forward flow), the pressure of the fluid lifts the disc off the seat, allowing flow through the valve body. The compression spring is temporarily compressed during this process.

     

    When the flow rate decreases or reverses, the spring force and reverse pressure act together to push the disc back onto the seat, closing the valve instantly. This rapid response prevents water hammer, backflow, and pressure surges in the system.

     

    This axial lift motion design provides:

     

    Quick closure response due to the preloaded spring

     

    Leak-tight sealing when backflow occurs

     

    Reduced seat wear because of linear movement

     

    Compact body structure compared to swing check valves

     

    For horizontal installations, the valve is generally designed with a vertical lift axis and guide to ensure stable operation. In vertical pipelines (upward flow), the valve naturally aligns with the flow direction, allowing smooth disc movement.

    5.Features and Advantages

    Compact and Robust Design

    The lift-type configuration occupies less space than swing check valves and provides higher structural strength. The short disc travel reduces mechanical stress and ensures long-term reliability.

     

    Spring-Loaded Mechanism

    The integrated spring enables faster closing action, minimizing backflow duration and water hammer risk. It is particularly suitable for high-pressure and high-speed flow systems.

     

    Tight Sealing Performance

    Precision-machined sealing surfaces and optional metal-to-metal or soft-seat configurations ensure leak-free performance under all rated conditions.

     

    Maintenance-Friendly Construction

    The bolted bonnet design allows easy disassembly and inspection. Seat and disc components can be replaced or refurbished without removing the entire valve from the pipeline.

     

    Versatile Installation

    Applicable for both horizontal and vertical upward flow pipelines. The design adapts to varied piping layouts while maintaining optimal flow characteristics.

     

    Standardized Connections

    DIN flange ends ensure compatibility with European piping systems. Standard pressure ratings (PN10–PN40) allow flexible system integration.

     

    Long Service Life

    High-quality materials, corrosion-resistant internals, and durable springs contribute to a long operational lifespan, even under demanding service conditions.

    6. Typical Applications

    The DIN Flange End Spring Loaded Lift Type Check Valve is commonly used in: Petrochemical and Refinery Systems: To protect pumps and compressors from backflow in hydrocarbon or chemical lines. Power Plants: Steam, condensate, and boiler feedwater systems where quick closure prevents reverse flow damage. Water and Wastewater Treatment: Prevents contamination from back-siphonage. HVAC and Cooling Systems: Ensures one-directional flow in chilled or hot water circuits. Pharmaceutical and Food Industries: With stainless steel construction for clean service applications. Its versatility makes it a preferred choice in both high-pressure and clean fluid environments.

    7. Testing and Quality Assurance

    Each valve undergoes hydrostatic shell and seat leak tests per EN 12266-1 to ensure performance integrity. Dimensional and visual inspections verify compliance with DIN specifications, and non-destructive testing (NDT) may be conducted upon request. Quality control documentation such as EN 10204 3.1 material certificates, pressure test reports, and
