The WF-3 operates solely on line pressure and back Outside Working Working
pressure to open and close...no outside energy source is DN Size D Diameter Pressure Pressure
required. As line pressure builds, the 100% elastomeric [mm] [psi] [MPa]
disc is folded away from the perforated plate, allowing
water to pass. The “memory” of the rubber will cause the 100 4’’ 230 150 1.0
disk to return flat, and backpressure will seal the disk 150 6’’ 280 150 1.0
against the plate to prevent backflow.

The WF-3 features a full-face flange and ANSI bolt drilling 250 10’’ 406 100 0.69
to mate between two pipe flanges.

The Elastomer Waterflex® is more cost effective than other 350 14’’ 533 75 0.52
valve styles. Moving parts such as hinges and springs 400 16’’ 597 75 0.52
can seize if routine maintenance and lubrication is not
performed. The WF-3 has no moving parts that require 450 18’’ 635 75 0.52
maintenance or repairs, so operational costs are low and 500 20’’ 700 75 0.52
service life is long. The WF-3 also eliminates the need for
600 24’’ 813 50 0.34
machined metal parts, further keeping costs down.
