P
REFACE:
T
his manual contains information concerning the installation,
o
peration, and maintenance of Titan Flow Control (Titan FCI) Globe
S
tyle, Silent Check Valves. To ensure efficient and safe operation of
T
itan FCI Globe Style Check Valves, the instructions in this manual
s
hould be thoroughly read and understood. This manual is general
i
n nature and is not meant to take the place of an on-site, process
e
ngineer or pipe fitter. As such, Titan FCI recommends that only
e
xperienced, skilled personnel be allowed to install and maintain
T
itan FCI Globe Check Valves. Please retain this manual in a location
w
here it is readily available for reference.

ENERAL INFORMATION:
T
itan FCI's Globe Style Check Valves are designed to automatically
p
revent back-flow in systems where it is desirable to permit flow
i
n one direction and prevent flow in the opposite direction. When
t
he pump starts and the downstream flow creates the required
p
ressure drop in the forward direction, the disc will automatically
o
pen. When the pump stops and the flow ceases, the force of the
s
pring will automatically close the disc prior to flow reversal. This
c
reates a positive shutoff against flow reversal and eliminates system
s
urges and water hammer.
F
or additional information regarding Titan FCI's Globe Style Check
V
alves, please refer to the engineering specification sheet for each
model. Further information may also be obtained from Titan FCI's
Check Valve Selection and Technical Data Guide.
Prior to selection of a Titan FCI Globe Style Check Valve, the
following factors must be determined:
• Material construction requirements of the Check Valve.
• Design and working pressure/temperature requirements.
• Operating conditions (throttling, pressure drop, condensation,
flow reversal, operation frequency, etc.).
• Service media type (liquid, gas, abrasive, corrosive, dirty, etc).
• Pipeline Media Flow-rate and Viscosity.
• Clean Start-up Pressure of the Pipeline.
• Space availability for installation.
Please contact a Titan Design Engineer to assist in the determination
of these requirements prior to selection and purchase.
