Air valves are essential devices for managing air within pipes and water systems.
USE OF AIR VALVES IN WATER SUPPLY SYSTEMS
Automatic air valves are essential for addressing various needs in water supply systems:
Air release during filling: Facilitates proper filling of pipes, preventing the accumulation of air pockets.
Air entry during emptying: Allows air to enter to prevent the formation of voids and maintain system stability. of the pipeline.
Release of air bubbles during operation: Prevents the accumulation of air that could reduce the efficiency of the system and cause unwanted phenomena such as water hammer.
Air valves can be equipped with various accessories to optimize their performance and adapt them to the specific needs of the system:
Shut-off valve: Allows inspection and maintenance of the air valve.
Drain valve: Facilitates drainage of the valve body and is used during hydraulic tests.
Anti-crush device: Prevents sudden closing of the valve and consequent overpressure phenomena.
