 Model 590 Grooved End Check Valves
(Page 1 of 2)
Tech Data Sheet: G350
GRINNELL Model 590 Check Valves are capable of pressures up to 2,068 kPa (300 psi). These valves are designed as compact and rugged swing-type units that
allow water flow in one direction and prevent flow in the opposite direction . They are manufactured with a ductile iron body, nickel seat, and a stainless steel clapper assembly for sizes 50mm – 200mm (2" – 8"), and a ductile iron clapper assembly for sizes 250mm – 300mm (10" – 12") . A resilient elastomer seal facing on the spring loaded clapper ensures a leak tight seal and a non-sticking operation . The Model 590 Check Valve is designed to minimise water hammer caused by flow reversal .
The valves are furnished with grooved ends and can be installed using GRINNELL Couplings . The Model 590 can be installed with GRINNELL Figure 71 Flange Adapters or ANSI class 300 Flange Adapters . All Model 590 Check Valves are designed with a removable cover for ease during field maintenance .
Seal Specifications
• Grade “E” EPDM seals have a green colour code identification and conform to ASTM D 2000 for service temperatures from -34°C to 110°C (-30°F to 230°F) . They are recommended for hot water not to exceed 110°C (230°F), plus a variety of dilute acids, oil free air, and many chemical services . They are not recommended for petroleum services .
• Grade “T” Nitrile seals have an orange colour code identification and conform to ASTM D 2000 for service temperatures from -29°C to 82°C (-20°F to 180°F) . They are recommended for petroleum products, vegetable oils, mineral oils, and air with
