Product Overview
The Single-flow valve DF65-35 (also referred to as manifold check valve/one-way valve) is a core product of Yancheng Kaifa Petroleum Machinery Co., Ltd., belonging to our High-Quality Valves and Durable Valves series, and a cornerstone of our Reliable Flow Control solutions for oilfield manifold systems. Engineered for critical fluid control in high-pressure industrial applications, this Single Flow Valve is designed to allow medium (drilling fluid, oil/gas, cement) to flow unidirectionally while preventing reverse flow—protecting manifold system equipment (pumps, compressors, valves), stabilizing system pressure, and avoiding medium cross-contamination or safety accidents. It is the indispensable "anti-backflow safety guardian" for manifold systems in oil and gas extraction, chemical pipelines, and energy transportation, trusted for its robust performance in harsh operating environments worldwide.

Product Features & Advantages
1. Industry-Leading Reliable Flow Control
As a flagship Single Flow Valve in our portfolio, the DF65-35 features a spring-loaded poppet design that ensures rapid closing (≤0.5 seconds) when reverse flow is detected—eliminating backflow risks and stabilizing manifold pressure instantly. This Reliable Flow Control capability reduces equipment damage by 40% compared to standard check valves, critical for high-pressure oilfield operations.
2. High-Quality & Corrosion-Resistant Construction
Crafted from forged anti-sulfur alloy steel (NACE MR0175 certified) and finished with anti-corrosion epoxy coating, our High-Quality Valves withstand sour gas (H2S content up to 15%), saltwater, and chemical corrosion. The one-piece forged body eliminates welding seams, reducing leakage risks to near zero and ensuring long-term performance in harsh environments.
3. Exceptional Durability for Long-Term Use
Designed as part of our Durable Valves range, the DF65-35 has a service life of over 10,000 operating hours (2x longer than conventional check valves) with minimal maintenance. Its high-temperature PTFE seals maintain integrity under extreme temperature fluctuations, avoiding frequent replacement and reducing operational downtime.
4. Easy Installation & System Compatibility
The compact, lightweight design (68kg) and API 6A flange connection enable quick installation/retrofit into existing manifold systems (completed in 30 minutes by 2 technicians). It is fully compatible with wellhead manifolds, fracturing manifolds, and gathering/transportation manifolds, requiring no additional system modifications.
Installation & Usage Guidelines
Proper installation and operation of the Single-flow valve DF65-35 are critical for reliable anti-backflow protection. Follow these step-by-step instructions:
- Pre-Installation Preparation
Verify the valve model (DF65-35) matches manifold system pressure (35MPa) and diameter (65mm) requirements; inspect valve body, seals, and flange for damage/corrosion; confirm flow direction marking (arrow on valve body) aligns with system fluid flow.
- Flange Connection & Fixation
Clean manifold flange and valve flange surfaces; align valve with flow direction arrow facing medium inlet; secure with API 6A standard bolts (torque: 550 N·m) to ensure leak-free connection; avoid over-tightening to prevent flange damage.
- Pressure Testing & Calibration
Conduct hydrostatic pressure test (42MPa for 20 minutes) to verify no leakage; test closing response by reversing fluid flow (ensure valve closes within 0.5 seconds); calibrate pressure differential to ≥0.1MPa for optimal anti-backflow performance.
- Normal Operation Monitoring
Monitor valve pressure differential during operation (maintain within 0.1-35MPa); check for abnormal noise/vibration (indicators of seal wear or backflow); record operating hours for scheduled maintenance.
- Post-Operation Maintenance
Shut down system pressure before maintenance; clean valve body and remove debris from flow channel; inspect PTFE seals for wear (replace every 2,000 operating hours); lubricate valve stem with anti-corrosion grease.
Application Scenarios
1. Oil & Gas Wellhead Manifolds
The Single Flow Valve DF65-35 is widely used in wellhead manifolds for oil/gas extraction, preventing drilling fluid backflow and protecting blowout preventer systems—critical for safe well control operations in high-pressure wells.
2. Fracturing & Cementing Manifolds
Ideal for fracturing/cementing manifold systems, our High-Quality Valves ensure unidirectional flow of fracturing fluid/cement slurry, avoiding pressure reversal and cross-contamination between fluid tanks.
3. Chemical & Energy Transportation Pipelines
In chemical pipelines and energy transportation networks, the DF65-35 provides Reliable Flow Control for corrosive media, preventing reverse flow that could cause pipeline damage or safety incidents.
4. Offshore Oilfield Platforms
The corrosion-resistant design of our Durable Valves makes them suitable for offshore oilfield platforms, withstanding saltwater exposure and extreme temperature changes in deepwater operations.
