Lead-free bronze swing check valve

The Apollo 61YLF208T1PR is a 2-inch press-connected check valve built from lead-free bronze with an EPDM seal and RPTFE seat. It suits residential and commercial plumbing systems that require a zero-lead pressure boundary for potable water or general-purpose fluid lines. The inline swing mechanism opens at a low .5 psi cracking pressure and handles flow in both horizontal and vertical orientations.

Replaces threaded or soldered bronze checks

Installers switching from threaded or solder-end bronze swing checks gain a flameless press connection that cuts joint labour and eliminates solder-related lead exposure. The upgrade is worth it on projects where lead-free compliance, faster rough-in, or press-tool workflow are specified by code or owner requirement.

Rated for 200 psi water and 15 psi steam at 180 °F

Under continuous service the valve sustains 200 psi cold-water pressure and 15 psi saturated steam up to 180 °F, with a minimum operating temperature of 33 °F. The bronze body and RPTFE seat maintain seal integrity through repeated thermal cycles, while the swing disc delivers a consistent 152 gpm flow capacity without chatter at design velocity.

Questions about this item

What pipe size and connection type does this 2 in press swing check valve require?

It fits 2 in pipe with press x press connections on both ends.

How is the valve oriented during installation, and what step is often missed?

Mount it horizontally or vertically with flow direction matching the arrow; the step often missed is confirming the arrow points downstream before pressing.

What maintenance will the EPDM seal and RPTFE seat need over time?

Inspect the EPDM seal and RPTFE seat periodically for wear or debris; replace them if leakage appears or flow drops below the 152 gpm rating.
