About Parker C Series Brass Check Valve, 5 Psi Cracking
The Parker C series check valve provides unidirectional control of liquids and gases. The valve body is made of brass for corrosion resistance, ductility at high temperatures, and low magnetic permeability. Brass can be connected to copper, brass, plastic, aluminum, and welded steel. The disc is made of Teflon for high/low temperature applications. The seat is made of fluorocarbon rubber, which provides increased resistance to high temperatures, oil, grease, and chemicals It has male NPT threads for connecting to female threaded pipes, creating a tighter seal than straight threads. The cracking pressure is 5 pounds per square inch (psi), and the maximum pressure rating is 3000 psi. The working temperature range is -15 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.Check valves have two ports and restrict the flow of fluids and other loose materials through a pipe or passageway to one direction. Flow enters through one port and exits through the other, closing when flow reverses or stops. Two common types of check valves are ball cone valves and swing check valves. A ball cone valve utilizes a spring-loaded ball seated against a cone-shaped interior surface to stop the flow of fluid in a forward direction, and a swing check valve has a movable disc on a hinge to block reverse flow. Check valves are rated by their cracking pressure (the minimum upstream pressure required for the valve to operate), and they are used in various water, gas, air, and steam lines.Parker Hannifin manufactures electromechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic motion technologies and systems. The company, founded in 1918 and headquartered in Cleveland, OH, provides fluid handling, filtration, sealing and shielding, climate control, process control, and aerospace technologies.
