Grundfos Stainless Steel Foot Valve for Dosing Pump Inlet Hose without Low Level (460LPH)

The Grundfos Stainless Steel Foot Valve is designed for demanding, high-flow chemical dosing applications where durability, corrosion resistance, and reliable suction performance are essential. Installed at the lower end of the dosing pump inlet hose, it ensures stable priming, prevents backflow, and protects the pump from suction loss during operation.

Rated for flow rates up to 460 L/h, this foot valve is manufactured from stainless steel EN 1.4571, making it suitable for aggressive chemicals and harsh industrial environments. The integrated non-return valve maintains prime between dosing cycles, while the built-in weight and 0.8 mm strainer keep the valve securely positioned at the bottom of the tank and prevent debris from entering the suction line.

This model is supplied without low-level or empty-tank indication, making it ideal for installations where level monitoring is handled externally or is not required.
