Smart Products Inc. has introduced its new 132 Side seal cartridge check valve. Used in liquid and air applications, this micro check valve incorporates a cylinder-shaped design with external sealing o-rings. The 132 Side seal cartridge check valve offers users mounting options for manifolds, assemblies, or passages. The valve fits any 3/8in I.D. (inner diameter) hole — whether drilled, milled, or molded. The double external o-rings ensure a positive seal, eliminating the distortion typically caused by press fitting valves. Available in a choice of materials and a range of opening pressures from 0.10 to 20PSI, the 132 Side seal cartridge check valve delivers a water flow rate of 1.7LPM at 5PSI. The valve is used for various applications across a wide range of industries including medical, food and beverage, water treatment, ink manufacturing, automotive, marine, or any application requiring a manifold or panel-mounted check valve.
