Dual-plate check valve P&ID symbol

Dual-plate check valve

ISO 10628-2 (group 22, check valves) / PIP PIC001 / API 594
Drawn as
Two vertical bars (a wafer between flanges) with two short plates hinged at the centre and opening downstream in a "<" shape, and a flow arrow above.
Meaning
Wafer check valve with two spring-loaded half-discs on a central hinge pin. Short and light, so common on compressor and pump discharges and on large water lines.
Variants
  • Many legends just use the general check symbol and write "dual plate" or "DPC"
  • Some draw a single vertical bar with a filled triangle
