The new Model 888VFD Wafer Style Check Valve from New York-based Flomatic Corporation is available in 2” – 4” with a 316 stainless steel guide and seat with EPDM elastomer disc standard, patent pending.
The Model 888VFD valve is designed for simple flange supported installation and aims to operate well in any position. It is also designed for ANSI 150# or 300# mounting. Standard check valves will “chatter” and be noisy when a VFD goes to low flow, causing premature wear and eventual failure. The double guided spring loaded poppet system aims to maximize efficiency and minimize water hammer with an easy field exchangeable internal system.
The Model 888VFD is recommended for booster pump systems, mechanical contractors, general utilities, irrigation systems and HVAC liquid service.
