Use the
following flow chart and technical specifications to determine
the correct Check Valve for your requirements
Because of the unrestricted Full Flow design of the Hansen CV you will often find you will be able to choose a smaller Hansen CV than most other check valves on the market.
As the Flow Chart is based on head loss across a fully opened diaphragm firstly refer to the table below headed "Flow Required to Fully Open Diaphragm" and check which valves sizes will not be fully open with your system flow. Example; 300lpm will not fully open a CV63. Then find your system flow across the bottom of the chart on this page and take a line vertically up the chart to size a valve with an acceptable head loss for your system.
Example; with a flow of 300lpm a CV50 will have a head loss of 1.1m and a CV32 will have a head loss of 4.4m.
