Description

The Air & Vacuum Valves are designed to automatically discharge or admit large volumes of air during the filling or draining of a pipeline or piping system. This valve will open to relieve negative pressures valve at pump shut-off and at water column separation.

Main Features

  • Working pressure range: 0.2 - 100 bar.
  • Testing Pressure: 1.5 times the working pressure of the air valve.
  • Maximum working temperature: 60° C.
  • Maximum intermittent temperature: 90° C.

Note: For applications requiring a working temperature above the maximum stated or below 50 C., please consult first with the A.R.I. Applications Engineering Dept.

  • Reliable operation reduces water hammer incidents.
  • Dynamic design allows for high capacity air discharge while preventing premature closure.
  • Lightweight, small dimensions, simple and reliable structure.
  • The discharge outlet enables the connection of a vent/drain pipe.

Valve Selection

  • K-014 (40 bar) / K-016 (64 bar) / K-100 (100 bar) - 
    Available in sizes 1" - 6"
  • These valves are manufactured with flanged ends to meet any requested standard.
  • The K- 014, K-016 air & vacuum valves are also available as a combination air valves which includes an automatic air release valve.
