FFA-CV-1FR Riser Check Valve

Description

CV-1FR Riser Check Valve – Fire Sprinkler Backflow Prevention Valve

The CV-1FR Riser Check Valve is a reliable one-way flow control valve designed for fire sprinkler riser systems and fire protection piping networks. It allows water to flow in the required direction while preventing reverse flow, helping maintain system integrity and reliable fire protection performance.

Manufactured with a durable ductile iron or cast iron body and corrosion-resistant internal components, the CV-1FR is designed for long service life in commercial, industrial, and high-demand fire protection environments. The valve features an automatic check mechanism that operates without external power, providing dependable backflow prevention during normal system operation and emergency conditions.

The CV-1FR is suitable for integration into wet pipe sprinkler systems, fire water distribution systems, and other fire protection applications where reliable flow direction control is required. Available configurations may include grooved or flanged connections depending on the manufacturer and system requirements.

Designed for installation in NFPA-compliant fire protection systems, the CV-1FR may be supplied with UL Listed and/or FM Approved options where applicable and verified by the manufacturer.
