A 10000 psi check valve is a type of pipeline valve that combines the functionalities of a check valve and a globe valve. It can prevent the backflow of fluid and, when necessary, control or completely stop the flow of fluid. When pressure is applied to both sides of the valve, it functions as a check valve, preventing reverse flow. When the valve needs to be manually closed, it acts like a globe valve, stopping the flow entirely.
The structure of the stop-check valve is typically categorized into two types: axial type and horizontal type. Axial check valves often use a spring-loaded or streamlined design to ensure smooth flow and quick response. Horizontal check valves are commonly designed with a swing or piston mechanism, offering reliable performance for various pipeline configurations.
Gangye offers several ANSI categories that allow for adaptation to various plumbing codes.

ANSI Class 300Lb: Suitable for medium pressure systems such as oil and gas pipelines and Chinese environments (NPS 2-24).
Class 600Lb: Designed for high pressure piping in power plants, refineries, or offshore oil platforms (NPS 2-12).
ANSI Class 900Lb and above: Used for critical operations with very high pressure requirements, such as oil field operations, steam systems
2. Pipe Size and Flow Rate
Ensure that the nominal pipe size (NPS) of the valve matches the pipe size to avoid installation problems. In addition, the orifice (d) of the valve should be adapted to the maximum flow rate required by the system.
3. Space and installation constraints
Select a valve with the appropriate size. For restricted spaces, a compact design like ANSI 1500 lb or 2500 lb class is usually preferred. When making your selection, also consider whether the valve will be mounted vertically or horizontally, as orientation will affect the effectiveness of the design to prevent backflow.
4. Application-Specific Considerations
For corrosive or high-temperature fluids, select materials such as stainless steel or high-temperature alloys with higher ANSI ratings to ensure better durability.
