Bermad IR-A10-P High Quality Automatic Air Valve (PN12)

The Bermad IR-A10-P is a high-performance automatic air release valve designed to efficiently evacuate trapped air pockets from pressurized irrigation systems. Air accumulation in pipelines can severely affect system performance, reduce flow efficiency, and damage components. The IR-A10-P’s advanced design and automatic orifice ensure continuous, reliable air release—even under low-pressure conditions.

Built with corrosion-resistant composite materials and rated to PN12, this valve is ideal for agricultural irrigation control heads, infield regulators, filtration systems, and landscape irrigation networks. Its rolling seal mechanism enables tight sealing at ultra-low pressures, while the integrated bottom port allows easy installation of a pressure gauge or test point.

APPLICATIONS

• Irrigation Control Heads
  – Air release at filter stations, fertigation units, and main valves
• Infield Systems
  – Protects water meters, automatic regulators, and zone valves
• Landscape Irrigation
  – Prevents air accumulation in mainlines and lateral lines
