Val-Matic’s Stainless Steel Wastewater Air Valves perform two important functions in a piping system: they maintain system design efficiency and provide system protection. Exhausting and admitting air keeps the system from restricted flow reducing pumping costs and reduces the potential for destructive surges and water hammer that can collapse a pipeline.
The lightweight cast stainless steel bodies have full-size outlet ports and enhanced seating profiles for low-pressure sealing. The valve design provides ease of maintenance and years of trouble-free operation in the harshest conditions such as severe service applications where hydrogen sulfide or industrial chemicals produce accelerated corrosion in iron.
