Water Systems: Air Release Valves

Commonly, when the pumps of the network start working, a great amount of air enters the pipes, causing dangerous high-pressure phenomena. In other cases, the low-pressure phenomena appeared in water system networks can lead to the destruction of the pipes. In both cases, the use of an automatic air release valve is highly recommended, as it protects the networks during their evacuation or fitting with water, inserting or extracting air when needed. The air release valves produced in our foundry are composed of two champers and can be either kinetic type or Glenfield.
