Air Vent Vacuum Relief Valve

Combination air vacuum relief and air release valve.

Air vent vacuum relief valve. Waterman air vents protect irrigation and piping systems by releasing entrapped air as pipelines fill and by providing vacuum relief when lines drain. Control devices vr series brass vacuum relief valve 0 30 hg vacuum range 1 4 male npt. Installation of proper air relief is essential to the proper operation and longevity of piping systems and the proper functioning of system pumps.

Features and specifications dual acting air release vacuum relief valve 80 psi working pressure inlet 1 npt seals at 5 psi clear open diameter is 0 610 optional schrader valve to check system pressure must call in to order this option. Air vacuum relief valves deliver optimum performance and increased efficiency of an irrigation system by preventing air lock problems and back suctioning of debris into the lines.

The image below shows the process of the air vacuum valve. Air valves perform two important functions in a piping system. Available in 2 3 and 4 inch sizes. Kinetic air vacuum relief valves help maintain a problem free irrigation system.

4 3 out of 5 stars 13. Admits and discharges large volumes of air when needed and releases small volumes of air continuously when the lines are. For additional information see air vacuum vents in our education center. Performs both functions as an air vacuum relief vent and automatic air release vent.

System full and pressurized water fills valve and closes of the vent. Air release valves provide high capacity venting of gas at system start up while degassing valves vent trace amounts of gas as it occurs during system operation vacuum breakers open automatically in response to minimal vacuum to prevent unwanted siphonage or collapse of storage tanks. Check out our air valve or air relief valve selection. They maintain system design efficiency and provide system protection by helping vent air.

Install before water meters or metering valves to ensure there is no air in the line for accurate flow readings. At system shutdown reduced pressure allows float to drop and air is drawn into system preventing vacuum conditions. Drip depot kinetic 1 mpt air vent and vacuum relief valve w protected outlet.
