Sant Valves Check and Non Return Valves in Bhopal

Fire Protection System, an authorised Sant Valves distributor in Bhopal, supplies Sant check and non return valves that stop water flowing backwards: dual plate and single plate wafer checks, cast iron reflux valves, bronze lift and swing checks, and forged and cast steel checks. Sizes run from 8 mm screwed bronze valves to 400 mm wafer valves.

Where to use Check and Non Return Valves

  • Fire pump and jockey pump delivery lines, to stop backflow when a pump stops
  • Hydrant and riser mains, to hold water in the line
  • Water supply pumps and booster sets
  • Tank filling and transfer lines
  • Oil lines (bronze lift and swing checks are listed for water and oil)
  • Steam lines (SBM-16 and SBM-17 union bonnet lift checks list steam)
  • High pressure process pipework (forged steel Class 800 and Class 1500, cast steel)
  • Grooved water pipework (DH87X double door check)

How to choose

Pick the pattern first. Wafer check valves (dual plate, single plate and disc types) are short bodies that clamp between two pipe flanges; the dual plate and disc types are spring loaded so they shut quickly when flow stops. Swing check or reflux valves have a hinged disc in a full flanged body; Sant's CR-31 and CR-31A reflux valves follow IS 5312, the Indian Standard for swing check type reflux valves, and are flanged to IS 1538 from 50 mm to 300 mm. Lift check valves have a disc that lifts off its seat and are used on smaller bores.

Match the valve to the pipe position. Horizontal lift checks go in horizontal pipes, vertical lift checks (IS-8, SBM-13) in pipes with upward flow, and the IS-23 right angle lift check turns the line through a corner. The BUCV universal check valve and the BSCV swing check are small brass valves with BSP threads.

Then choose the pressure rating. Reflux valves come in PN10 (CR-31) or PN16 (CR-31A). Dual plate wafer valves come in PN-16 with cast iron body (DP, DP-1A) or PN-25 with ductile iron body (DP2). Bronze IS series valves follow IS 778: Class 1 is body tested at 1.5 MPa and Class 2 at 2.4 MPa. For high pressure plant lines there are forged steel FSV valves in Class 800 and Class 1500 and the CS-8A cast steel swing check with Class-300 flanges.

None of the valves on this page are listed as UL or FM approved in the maker's data. Where the fire design calls for listed check valves, Sant's DH77X, H44X2 and H84X are in the UL Listed and FM Approved range. FPS supplies and installs Sant check valves in Bhopal and across Madhya Pradesh.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a check valve, a non return valve and a reflux valve?
They are three names for valves that let water flow one way only. In India, reflux valve usually means a flanged swing check type non return valve on a water main, such as Sant's CR-31 and CR-31A to IS 5312.
Why choose a dual plate wafer check valve?
A dual plate wafer valve is short and light because it sits between two flanges, and its spring loaded plates close quickly when the flow stops. Sant makes them from 50 mm to 400 mm in PN-16 and PN-25.
Which Sant check valves are ISI marked?
The IS-8, IS-14, IS-14A, IS-15, IS-15A and IS-16 bronze check valves are made to IS 778 and ISI marked, in Class 1 or Class 2 with screwed or flanged ends.
Can I fit a lift check valve in a vertical pipe?
Only a vertical lift check, such as Sant's IS-8 or SBM-13, is meant for a vertical pipe with upward flow. Horizontal lift checks must be fitted in horizontal lines.
Which check valves suit a fire pump delivery line?
Both swing check reflux valves and dual plate wafer valves are used on pump delivery lines; the choice depends on pipe size, space and system pressure. Where the consultant asks for UL or FM listed valves, FPS supplies Sant's listed DH77X, H44X2 or H84X instead.
How do I get a price for Sant check valves?
Prices depend on model, size and quantity and are shared on request. Call or WhatsApp +91 92440 89060 and FPS will quote for supply or supply with installation across MP.
