Bermad IR-A30-P Plastic Automatic Air Release Valve with Vacuum Protection (PN16)
Bermad IR-A30-P High Quality Combination Air Valve (PN16)
| DOWNLOAD PRODUCT BROCHURE |
The Bermad IR-A30-P is a premium combination air release and vacuum relief valve, engineered to efficiently discharge air from pressurised pipelines while preventing vacuum formation during drainage or system shut-down. With a large diameter automatic orifice, the IR-A30-P delivers high flow air discharge and rapid vacuum intake, making it ideal for long horizontal lines and high points in irrigation and water supply systems.
Its dynamic sealing mechanism ensures tight closure even under low-pressure conditions (as low as 0.1 bar), reducing the risk of leaks and maintaining accurate pressure regulation across the system. The valve’s robust, corrosion-resistant construction and compliance with EN-1074/4 standards guarantee long-term performance and reliability in demanding field conditions.
Optional add-ons for the 50mm size include Surge Protection, Assisted Closure, and Inflow Protection Kits, enhancing operational safety and adaptability.
