check valves with Press connections oer reliable service
in most
heating, cooling and non-potable plumbing systems
. These valves
are cast, machined, assembled, and tested in South Carolina
using proven ASTM quality materials. May be installed in both
horizontal and vertical ow with upward ow.
FEATURES:
• Fast, Reliable, Economical Press Installation
• Ridgid® XL Press Tool Compatible
• Leak Before Press® Technology
• 1/2 psi spring cracking pressure is standard
• Tight Shut-o With Liquid Media
• Straight-through Flow Design Eciency
• RPTFE Ball-Cone® for Chemical Resistance
• Made in USA, ARRA Compliant
PERFORMANCE RATING
†
:
• Maximum Pressure: 250 psi (17.2 bar) non-shock
• Temperature Range: 0°F - 250ºF (-18°C - 121°C)
• Low Pressure Steam - Max. working pressure: 15 psi
† APOLLOXPRESS® connectors are designed for direct mechanical
connection to ASTM B88-Type K, L, and M copper tubing in the hard
drawn condition. Press connectors are not suitable for ammable
gas service.

For liquids, the ow coecient - Cv - expresses the ow capacity in gallons per minute
(GPM) of 60°F water with a pressure drop of 1 psi (lb/in
2
).
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.
