check valve and non return valve

> What is the difference between check valve and non return valve

Both are doing the function of avoiding reverse flow. If both sides of a valve is same phase, say liquid, then it is Check valve. if one is a gas vessel and inlet is liquid ,the valve is NRV and must be horizontal (for two phase its NRV).
 
NRV is used in vertical location where as check valve is used in horizontal location. Function is same for both.
