Name plate
The indications on the name plates vary according
to the equipment type.
The name plate may specify the following:
Manufacturer
Type designation
Design
Nominal size
Pressure rating
Direction of flow
CE marking
Date of manufacturing
Serial number
Maximum operating pressure at the associated
operating temperature
Minimum operating pressure at the associated
operating temperature
Material specification of plates and seat
Small equipment has the technical
specification embossed on its body.
Application of European Directives
Pressure Equipment Directive
The equipment conforms to this directive (see
"Manufacturer's Declaration" section) and can be
used for the following media:
BB G, BB GS and BB GK:
Fluids of group 2
BB A and BB C:
Fluids of group 1
Fluids of group 2
ATEX Directive
The equipment does not have its own potential
ignition source and is not subject to this directive
(see "Manufacturer's Declaration" section).
When installed, static electricity may arise between
the equipment and the connected system.
When used in potentially explosive atmospheres,
the plant manufacturer or plant operator is
responsible for discharging or preventing possible
static charge.
If it is possible for medium to escape, e.g. through
actuating mechanisms or leaks in threaded joints,
the plant manufacturer or plant operator must take
this into consideration when dividing the area into
zones.
Task and function
Purpose
The equipment prevents the backflow of liquids or
gases in pipes.
The equipment can be installed in horizontal and
vertical pipes.
If the equipment is mounted in a vertical pipe the
flow must normally be from bottom to top.
If springs of type 5 VO are used, the equipment can
also be installed in vertical pipes with downward
flow. This kind of installation (vertically downward
flow) is only possible with equipment up to
DN 500.
Function
Two valve plates open and close the pipe as a
function of the flow direction of the fluid.
Each one of the two plates is closed by two springs
guided by the hinge pin. The opening pressure
depends on the type of spring used.
