"Check valve sizing is more important than you think - Proper sizing can avoid costly problems"

It is surprisingly common for check valve sizing to be an afterthought in the flow control/fluid process industries. Often marketed together with gate and globe valves, check valves are such a small part of the gate, globe, and check valve market that many engineers in the field don’t even think about their sizing. It is usually check valve failure that prompts engineers to seek technical support. Even then, they may not consider that sizing is the underlying issue.
