Lift Check Valves

The Lift Check Valve is designed to allow fluid to flow in one direction while preventing reverse flow, protecting critical components such as pumps and compressors from potential damage. This valve features a lift-type mechanism where the disc moves vertically in response to forward flow, and closes automatically when reverse flow occurs.
