How does LKC Non-Return Valve work?

The LKC Non-return Valve operates based on pressure differentials. When the pressure at the inlet exceeds the force of the spring, the valve opens, allowing flow. If reverse flow occurs, the spring force and pressure from the outlet keep the valve securely closed. The minimum differential pressure required for the valve to open in a vertical pipe installation is approximately 6 kPa (0.06 bar).
