Sanitary Butt-weld Check Valve Application
Sanitary check valve, also known as “non-return valve”, is designed for use in process piping installations to prevent reverse flow. AV-3W series is a spring check valve with butt-weld ends.

Sanitary Butt-weld Check Valve Working Principle
A check valve opens when the pressure below the valve plug exceeds the pressure above the valve plug and the spring force. The valve close when pressure equalization has been achieved. The below picture shows the right installation:
