`
`Vacuum Check Valves for Vacuum Systems
`Used in Virtually Every Vacuum Application Shown on Our Website
`New, improved designs, competitively priced and leak—proof— specially made by ANVER in the USA.
`
`We have built our own due to the lack ofsuitable check valves for our type ofvacuum applications.
`ANVER CheckVai3 offer the best combination offeatures for our industry, making them the best overall value.
`
`"'.‘.<s.'s.!s.3'@
`
`For Industrial Vacuum Applications Requiring High Flow:
`ANVER one-way vacuum check valves are suitable for all vacuum appllcatlons, where vacuum loss prevention Is required. The check valves can operate In any posltlon,
`maklng them suitable for all vacuum needs We designed them to be leakproot, and to have a low cracklng pressure and the hlghest flow available Made in the USA by
`ANVER.
`
`Features that make CheckVac valves the best for vacuum applications:
`One—piece airtight aluminum body in a compact design No seams means no leakage —two—piece valves that screwtogether risk possible leakage. The
`anodized aluminum body Wlll not crack as may plastic valves when being screwed into a fitting.
`Optimum flow design for all vacuum applications — a very large Flow Rate (CV). This allows more suction flow and ellminates the major source offlow restriction
`ln most vacuum systems. Thls is an easy performance upgrade which offers the best results forthe money.
`Spring loaded, so they operate in any orlentation The low cracking pressure allows you to get the most performance from your pumps; does not waste your
`pump's power opening the check valve
`Preclslon Internal plastic valve with stainless steel sprlngs — ellmmates corroslon from water contamlnatlon.
`Note: On the 3!El" check valve we used a 112" check valve with adaptors. This allows for a maxlmlzed flow rate (CV) in this popular size. Try it on any 3J8" hosed
`system; you will find that the reduced restrlction is worth the minimal added cost of adaptors The 1" is a1 ‘A" with adaptors and the l
`‘/2" is a 2" wlth adaptors
`Again. the reason for ll’1|S Is to maxlmlze tlow.
`Remember: The main restriction ofa vacuum system is at the check valve. You can utllize a smaller pump ifyou increase flow at this point. This is the most
`economical way to increase a vacuum system's performance.
