Nibco NLN52XM – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can the Nibco G-920-W-LF grooved check valve be installed vertically?
Yes, but only with flow moving up. The G-920-W-LF silent check valve is approved for horizontal installation or vertical installation with upward flow. It's spring actuated, so gravity isn't what closes it, but the mounting orientation still has to follow those two positions. Downward vertical flow is not an approved position.
2) What is the pressure and temperature limit on the Nibco G-920-W-LF?
250 psi (17.2 bar) non-shock cold working pressure, with a maximum temperature of 180 F (82 C). The 180 F ceiling comes from the Buna-N seat, so this one suits domestic water and standard hydronic service, not high temperature steam or hot water above that limit.
3) Will a silent twin disc check valve stop water hammer better than a swing check?
That's the point of this design. The G-920-W-LF is a spring actuated twin disc check, so the discs close as flow decays rather than slamming shut after reverse flow starts. That's what keeps pump discharge and riser piping quiet. A swing check has no spring and relies on backflow to shut it, which is where the hammer comes from.
4) What size Nibco G-920-W-LF do I order for a 4 inch grooved riser, and what's the part number?
The 4 inch is MPN NLN52XH. Full size range and numbers: 2 inch NLN52XD, 2-1/2 inch NLN52XE, 3 inch NLN52XF, 4 inch NLN52XH, 5 inch NLN52XJ, 6 inch NLN52XK, 8 inch NLN52XL, 10 inch NLN52XM, 12 inch NLN52XN. Size is the only option to pick, everything else on the valve is the same across the range.
5) Is the Nibco G-920-W-LF a wafer style valve that mounts between flanges?
No. This is a grooved end valve, not a wafer. It joins with grooved couplings to C606 grooved steel pipe. If your piping is flanged, a grooved valve won't drop in without grooved adapter flanges or a different valve body style.
6) Can the discs be replaced without pulling the valve out of the line?
The discs are renewable bronze, so they are a serviceable wear item rather than a throwaway. Nibco publishes the Twin Disc Check Valves KW900WLF-W920WLF IOM manual covering service on this family, and that's what you follow for disc and spring replacement procedure.
