3.2 Description

The GEMÜ R90 is a metal disco check valve with flange con-
nection and standardized length to DIN EN 558. The valve
body, disc and seal are available in various materials. In the
version with metallic seal, the GEMÜ R90 valve can be used
at high temperatures up to 400 °C.

3.3 Function

The flow of fluid causes disc 2 in the check valve to open.
Check valves need a low opening pressure. The resulting
opening force moves the disc 2 against the spring 3 by over-
coming the the weight force of the disc 2 and the spring force
of the spring 3 so that the medium is released.
