Swing check valves are normally recommended for water and wastewater systems applications because of the simple construction, low pressure drop across the valve, and field serviceability.
Swing check valves are available in either metal-to-metal seat or resilient seating. Resilient seated swing check valves are usually recommended for wastewater or services where dirt or other particles may be present in the fluid and positive shutoff is required.
Typically a swing check valve operation depends on gravity (weight of disc) and reverse flow. The pivot point of the swing check is outside the periphery of the disc and, the greater the flow velocity and head pressure possibility the greater the valve closing force. To prevent the slamming of the disc and reducing hydraulic shocks external hinge arm is available with either a lever weight or an adjustable spring.

Swing check valves
-Data sheet
Swing check valves have many uses, from sewage systems and wastewater treatment to firefighting, power plants, and various household items. One of the most commonly known examples of this valve type is the swing check valve that allows water to enter a toilet’s tank while blocking the reverse flow.
A swing check valve is a simple device designed for the one-way flow of a liquid or gas. It has a disc that swings on a hinge, opening to allow fluid to flow in, then closing to prevent backflow. Swing check valves are designed in a variety of sizes with different features to suit specific application types. There are also some slight variations on the swing design that better suit particular situations.
