The components of the 81 AD non-surge check valve include one CV flow control, a valve position indicator (VPI), and:

The inclusion of two swing check valves as components of the 81 AD non-surge check valve is significant because swing check valves operate based on the flow of liquid, allowing it to flow in one direction while automatically preventing backflow. This design is crucial in preventing surges and maintaining the integrity of water and fuel systems by ensuring that the systems remain operational without the risk of reverse flow that could cause damage or inefficiencies.

In this context, the two swing check valves provide redundancy and enhanced operational reliability. If one swing check valve were to fail for any reason, the second could effectively prevent backflow, thereby protecting the system’s components. This configuration also allows for better flow control and reduces the potential for water hammers, which could lead to system malfunctions.

The other components, such as the CV flow control and the valve position indicator (VPI), work in tandem with the two swing check valves to ensure that the system operates efficiently and safely, reinforcing the importance of each part within the assembly. This holistic view of the 81 AD non-surge check valve highlights how vital it is to have multiple swing checks, reflecting a comprehensive approach to managing water and fuel systems effectively.
