Stop-Check Valve Cartridge

A Stop-Check Valve Cartridge is a type of valve used in plumbing and fluid control systems. It is classified under the supply class Valves, Nonpowered, which means it does not require any external power source to operate.

The purpose of a Stop-Check Valve Cartridge is to control the flow of fluid in a pipeline. It combines the functions of a stop valve and a check valve into a single unit.

A stop valve is used to completely stop the flow of fluid in a pipeline. It has a handle or lever that can be turned to close or open the valve. When the valve is closed, it prevents any fluid from passing through.

A check valve, on the other hand, allows fluid to flow in only one direction. It has a mechanism that automatically opens when fluid flows in the desired direction and closes to prevent backflow.

A Stop-Check Valve Cartridge combines these two functions. It can be used to stop the flow of fluid in a pipeline, just like a stop valve. Additionally, it also has a check valve mechanism that allows fluid to flow in only one direction and prevents backflow.

This type of valve cartridge is commonly used in applications where it is necessary to control the flow of fluid and prevent backflow, such as in water supply systems, irrigation systems, and industrial processes.

Please note that the specific design and features of a Stop-Check Valve Cartridge may vary depending on the manufacturer and the intended application.
