About this asset

Engineered for wet service mains, this industrial grey metal detector check valve Revit family features flanged in-line connection collars. Defined by a solid prismatic body, this check valve assembly incorporates circular inlet and outlet flanges designed for integration into standard piping layouts. A raised cylindrical top access port with visible hinge lugs provides service access over the internal flapper mechanism. Rendered in a neutral matte grey finish with clean geometric faceting, the component exhibits parametric circular radius dimension markers at both terminal ends and the central inspection collar. The housing transitions smoothly between the central box-like chamber and the rounded end attachments, maintaining clear spatial clearances for MEP coordination.

The download is a 410 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

In Revit, load this RFA family directly into mechanical, plumbing, or fire protection project templates. The component aligns axially with pipe runs, facilitating accurate connection to adjoining flanged or grooved pipework systems. Verify nominal diameter parameters to match pipe schedule sizes, check elevation relative to floor levels, and confirm system classifications to ensure proper hydraulic flow representation and conflict-free spatial clash detection in Navisworks or BIM 360 models.

Standard fire suppression risers, dedicated water service entries, and plant rooms in commercial offices, industrial warehouses, and hospital complexes rely on check valves for backflow prevention and flow detection. This component integrates cleanly alongside backflow preventers, gate valves, booster pumps, and water meters on incoming service diagrams. Specifiers searching for MEP pipe accessories, inline backflow prevention, or fire protection riser valves can deploy this element across schematic design coordination and technical construction documentation packages.
