Are the Flomatic 895 Series Split Disc check valves suitable to be used in air applications?

Yes, the literature on the 895 Series valves does not include any information indicating these valves as suitable for air application. However, the engineering team at Flomatic has confirmed that the 895 Series split disc check valves are commonly used in blower applications and that they work well.

The Flomatic 895 Split Disc® check valve can be installed vertically (flow up only) or horizontally.

NOTE: When installing horizontally it MUST be installed with the disc hinge pin and stop pin in the vertical position. Make sure to follow the installation instructions. https://www.flomatic.com/assets/pdf_files/oem/16054.pdf
