EEMUA Members' Information Sheet 60, ‘Special requirements for non-return valves (check valves) used for machine applications’, provides a brief introduction to non-return (or check) valves and their uses, and helps the user understand the impact upon failures on non-return valves. The information sheet also assists in the appropriate updating or development of machinery equipment safety cases and maintenance documents. EEMUA has developed this document to address issues derived from extensive user experience and help ensure safe installation and operation of non-return valves at facilities.

Members’ Information Sheets are compiled by the EEMUA Technical Committees and the EEMUA Executive as a service to Member Companies. Employees working for Member Companies can download the new document for free from the Knowledge Centre.  

EEMUA aims to improve the safety, environmental and operating performance of industrial facilities in the most cost-effective way, pursuing and promoting leadership in industrial asset management by sharing engineering experiences and expertise, and by the active, enlightened promotion of the distinct interests of users of engineering products.
