A check valve, also called a one-way valve, is a device that allows the flow of fluids to move only in one direction. The primary purpose of a check valve is to prevent backflow in the system. Check valves are cheap, effective, and easy solutions to a potential issue. Backflow can cause a problem if the flow is contaminated and, therefore, contaminates the media upstream. For example, a sewer line will have a non-return valve to ensure that waste can leave but not re-enter the system it came from. Figure 1 shows an example of a check valve.
There are various sizes, designs, and materials to ensure there is a check valve for every application. Two-way check valves are commonly used. Check valves with vents are used as three-way check valves to protect the incoming water supply from contamination caused by backflow. The atmospheric vent allows the disposal of purged water into an existing drain. An arrow on its bonnet indicates the check valve flow direction.
