3''-16'' Series 2100 Overview

The American Flow Control Series 2100 Resilient Seated Check Valve is simple, durable, and eliminates most problems associated with metal seated swing check valves. The Series 2100 features a compact ductile iron body and bonnet. Ductile iron has more than twice the strength of gray iron.

The disc is made of ductile iron encapsulated with rubber. The Series 2100 Valve is rated for 250 p.s.i.g. The valve seals 100% drop tight at pressures above 5 p.s.i.g. The waterway is unobstructed and free from pockets.

This valve is designed to minimize disc slam. The disc only has to travel 35 degrees from full open to full closed. This allows the valve to close before flow reversal in most applications.

There is only one moving part, making this valve virtually maintenance free. Should the disc be damaged, it can be reversed and the valve put back into immediate service.

The Series 2100 Resilient Seated Check Valve has these advantages over metal seated swing check valves:

  • 250 p.s.i.g. rating
  • Ductile iron body, bonnet, & disc
  • Fusion-bonded-epoxy coating inside & outside
  • Does not require outside lever & weights or springs
  • Only one moving part
  • No O-Rings, packing, pins, or bearings to wear out
  • No bronze seat ring to wear or need replacing
  • Drop-tight shutoff at pressures above 5 p.s.i.g.
  • Suitable for buried service
  • The 100% unobstructed flow area is free of pockets which can trap debris.
  • A factory-installed backflushing actuator can be furnished as an option. This device is useful for priming pumps, backflushing, draining lines, and system testing.
