Air Release Valve Product Features
-
Float parts made of polyethylene, increase the corrosion resistance, hence increases service life.
-
The polyethylene floats gives advantage for easier replacement.
-
Ductile iron body increases the resistance against impacts.
-
It is necessary to use air release valves on the peak points of the pipelines, in order to maintain the full flow of the water.
-
If the air vacuum via air release valve is less than the discharged water amount, the pipeline will face the risk of torsion.
-
Fully coated body and bonnet, meets the hygienic requirements of the potable water networks. (WRAS coating optional)
-
Double orifice air release valve is installed on the pipe by a flange, release the air received from its outlet through the orifices located above the float parts.
-
When the air release function is completed, the floats travel upper part with the water force and close the orifice outlet, thus preventing the leakage of water.
-
Flange connections according to EN1092-2/ISO 7005-2. Working pressure range from 0.2 to 16 bar.
-
Hydrostatic test pressure for seat: PN x 1.1 , for shell: PN x 1.5 according to EN 12266-1.
