Conbraco 62-106-01 Check Valve

The Conbraco 62-106-01 Check Valve is a 1-1/4" FNPT spring-actuated stainless steel ball cone check valve designed for high-performance fluid control in demanding industrial environments. Engineered with an ASTM A351-CF8M stainless steel investment cast body and a durable RPTFE ball cone, this Apollo 62-100 series valve is tailored for corrosive chemical processing, pulp and paper, and general process industries. The spring-loaded design ensures rapid seating to prevent backflow, while the center-guided construction eliminates the need for radial alignment. With a cracking pressure of 0.5 psi and a pressure rating of 400 psig CWP (non-shock) and 125 psig for saturated steam, it offers a reliable CV rating of 44. This valve supports both vertical and horizontal installation; however, it is not recommended for reciprocating pump applications or high-vibration systems. Integrate this check valve into your piping configuration to minimize pressure drops and ensure consistent reverse flow protection.

Key Benefits

• Heavy-duty 316 stainless steel internal components and CF8M body provide superior resistance to corrosion and chemical degradation.
• The patented ball-cone design ensures a tight shutoff and a straight-through flow path to minimize system pressure loss.
• Equipped with a 316 SS spring for fast-acting closure and reliable performance in saturated steam applications up to 350°F.
• FNPT threaded connections allow for secure, industry-standard installation in potable water or industrial fluid lines.

Common Questions

• Can this valve be installed in any orientation? Yes, it is designed for horizontal or vertical (upward flow) installation, provided the flow arrow on the body is followed.
• What is the minimum pipe clearance required? For optimal performance and to prevent turbulence-induced wear, it is recommended to maintain 10 pipe diameters of straight pipe upstream and 2 pipe diameters downstream.
• Is this valve suitable for pulsating flow? No, spring check valves of this series are not recommended for use with reciprocating pumps as repetitious vibrations can lead to premature failure.
