Flap Valves & Duckbill Valves
Flap Valves and Duckbill Valves supplied by Kenz Sarab Machinery & Equipment Co. are engineered backflow prevention solutions designed to protect drainage networks, storm water outlets, and infrastructure assets from reverse flow, tidal intrusion, flooding, and contamination. These valves play a critical role in maintaining the integrity and reliability of drainage and storm water systems across Saudi Arabia.
In coastal regions, low-lying developments, and storm water discharge points, uncontrolled backflow can cause severe damage. Kenz Sarab delivers robust, maintenance-efficient valve solutions that operate automatically and reliably under varying hydraulic conditions.
Backflow occurs when downstream water levels rise above upstream discharge points, allowing water to reverse direction and enter drainage networks. This can result in:
Flap valves and duckbill valves are essential components in preventing these issues by allowing one-way flow only, without the need for external power or manual operation.
Flap valves operate using a hinged gate mechanism that opens under forward flow and closes automatically when reverse flow occurs. Kenz Sarab supplies flap valves engineered for reliable sealing, structural durability, and consistent operation.
Key characteristics of flap valves include:
Flap valves are commonly installed at outfall pipes, drainage channels, culverts, and discharge points.
Duckbill valves are elastomeric check valves designed to allow fluid to pass through a flexible slit that opens under pressure and closes tightly when pressure is removed or reversed. Kenz Sarab supplies duckbill valves engineered for excellent backflow prevention and low maintenance.
Key advantages of duckbill valves include:
These characteristics make duckbill valves particularly suitable for harsh environments and submerged applications.
Flap valves and duckbill valves supplied by Kenz Sarab Machinery & Equipment Co. are manufactured using high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials such as HDPE, rubber elastomers, and composite materials, depending on application requirements.
Material benefits include:
Robust construction ensures consistent operation even in aggressive environmental conditions.
Kenz Sarab flap valves and duckbill valves are widely used across a range of infrastructure and drainage applications, including:
These valves provide reliable protection against backflow and flooding in both urban and industrial environments.
Both flap valves and duckbill valves supplied by Kenz Sarab are designed to perform reliably under variable flow rates, fluctuating water levels, and changing environmental conditions. The automatic operation ensures immediate response to backflow conditions without operator intervention.
This reliability is critical for storm water management systems, where sudden changes in water levels can occur during heavy rainfall or tidal events.
Kenz Sarab flap valves and duckbill valves are designed for easy integration with existing pipelines, channels, and drainage structures. They can be installed on new systems or retrofitted to existing infrastructure with minimal disruption.
Proper installation ensures:
Kenz Sarab supports clients with technical guidance on valve selection, sizing, and installation.
One of the key advantages of flap valves and duckbill valves is their low maintenance requirement. The simple design and durable materials reduce the need for frequent inspection and servicing.
Operational benefits include:
These benefits contribute to lower lifecycle costs and improved system reliability.
All flap valves and duckbill valves supplied by Kenz Sarab Machinery & Equipment Co. are selected to comply with international engineering standards and Saudi authority requirements.
Compliance ensures:
