The Proco Series 700 ProFlex rubber check valves are designed to provide outstanding back-flow prevention; eliminating costly and unwanted backflow from rivers, oceans, storm water, and is an excellent choice for sewage diffuser systems. The Proco Series 700 ProFlex rubber check valves are fully passive flow devices requiring neither maintenance nor any outside sources of power or manual assistance to operate.

4.0 Installation Note: Each Proco Series 700 ProFlex rubber check valve installation can be considered a major pipe installation and the same safety requirements as used in pipe contracting installations should be implemented.

ProFlex Series 700 Check Valves require little maintenance. Periodic inspections can ensure that the check valve will provide years of maintenance-free service. Check for cuts or gouges which can easily be repaired with a self-curing rubber compound (Contact Proco). Ensure that the bill section is free from any debris that may have been lodged in the bill. This will be the only areas of concern that require periodic inspection.
