2 DESIGN
2.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE VALVE DESIGN
F.A. JAFAR S.A manufactures the Type 6534 flange-to-flange check flap valves for industrial and water
supply systems. The valve body is made of stainless steel or zinc-plated carbon steel and houses a wafer flap as
the valve closure. In the operating conditions, the flap is held at the top position (under the inner pipe wall) by
the dynamic force of the liquid stream, or in the closed position, where it seals off the valve seat under the back
pressure.
