Description
In comparison to the butterfly valves, the gate valve benefits are somewhat the opposite, with the slow open to close operation brings a benefit in that it can prevent water hammer due to the multiple turns you have to make to get to the closed position.
A critical problem on many systems is backflow; at Quantum our check valves are a good option for the discharge side of your pump to prevent backflow and in turn water hammer and permanent system damage.
As mentioned above, no matter your requirement for your fire protection system Quantum have a component available manufactured to the highest standards ready to protect.
