Check valve for KEGs – Suitable for 95% of all KEGs (not for flat-sealing KEGs)

Material: PVC

1. Function of the check valve cone

The check valve cone is an important component that is inserted into the base of the KEG cap to regulate the flow of liquid or gas from the KEG. It acts as a valve and ensures that the beverage or CO2 only flows in the desired direction. At the same time, the check valve prevents gas or liquid from escaping unintentionally when the tap head is not in use.

2. Compatibility

suitable for 95% of all KEGs – compatible with most KEG systems on the market.
not suitable for flat-sealing KEGs!

3. Material

material: PVC – robust, flexible, and resistant to beverage acids and CO2.
durable: PVC offers a long service life and retains its shape and function even under pressure.
Resistant to cleaning agents: Easy to clean and hygienic to maintain.
flexible fit: The check valve fits perfectly into the base of the KEG cap, ensuring a tight and secure connection.

4. Function

check valve function: The cone sits in the seat of the KEG closure and closes the outlet when the tap head is not mounted.
flow direction: When the tap head is in operation, the pressure opens the cone so that beer or CO2 can flow in the desired direction.
automatic sealing: After tapping or when the tap head is removed, the cone is pushed back into its original position by the back pressure and closes the outlet.

5. Advantages of the check valve

Prevents gas and liquid loss: The cone ensures that no liquid or CO2 can escape uncontrollably after dispensing.
easy to use: The check valve cone is quick to install and replace.
durable and robust: The PVC material is ideal for continuous use and meets the requirements of a KEG system.
hygienic & easy to clean: The cone can be easily rinsed with water and cleaning agents and always remains in perfect condition.
cost savings: The effective seal means less gas or beer is wasted, which reduces operating costs.

6. Application & installation

step 1: Remove the tap head and the existing cone (if necessary).
step 2: Insert the check cone into the base of the KEG cap.
step 3: Ensure that the cone is firmly in place and correctly positioned in the closure area.
step 4: Check that the cone reliably closes the outlet opening.
step 5: Reinstall the tap head and test the function of the KEG system.

7. Cleaning & maintenance

regular inspection: Check the cone regularly for deposits or damage.
cleaning: Rinse with warm water and a mild cleaning agent for dispensing systems.
replacement in case of defect: If the cone is damaged or worn, it must be replaced to ensure the functionality of the KEG.
