Surgebuster® Check Valves

The Surgebuster® Check Valve is excellent in a number of applications including high head, multiple pump and surge tank installations. The Surgebuster® achieves rapid closure through a short disc stroke of 35° and use of the adjustable Disc Accelerator™ to avoid slamming by flow reversal, while at the same time allowing the disc to be stabilized under flow conditions.
