Precautionary Note: Not recommended for use with reciprocating
pumps and similar applications, which may induce repetitious
vibrations. Low ow rates which do not fully open the valve may
result in undesirable noise and premature valve failure. Upstream
ow disturbances, which create turbulence, may also result in
rapid wear. Therefore, it is recommended that a minimum of 10
diameters of straight pipe be provided between the check valve
and any upstream ow disturbances such as pumps, control valves,
elbows, etc. See Installation Manual for details.
Not intended for potable water
