The DG-10 & D-040 Combination air valves have similar features but they are made of different materials. The DG-10 is rated to 10 bar and the D-040 is rated to 16 bar.
Both models feature a combination air-release valve and an air-vacuum valve. The air-release component of the valves is designed to automatically release small pockets of air as they accumulate at local high points along a pipeline when the pipeline or piping system is full and operating under pressure. The air-vacuum component was designed to automatically discharge or admit large volumes of air during filling or draining of a pipeline or piping system. This valve will open to relieve negative pressures whenever water column separation occurs
APPLICATIONS
- Downstreem (after) and upstreem (before) shut-off valve
- On long water supply lines
- At peaks alon the line
- At the end of lines
- Before water meter
- On strainers and filters
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Light, simple and reliable structure
- The valve prevents premature closing by discharging air at high velocity, exceeding 11 psi differential pressure
- The orifice of the automatic continuous acting valve is larger than in any other air release valve of it's kind, therefore it discharges air at higher flow rates
- The size of the automatic opening reduces the the possibility of obstruction by debris
- The valve design features a rolling seal mechanism which is less sensitive to pressure differentials than a direct float seal. It accomplishes this by having a comparably large opening for a wide pressure range (up to 16 bar)
- The body is made of high strength plastic, and all operating parts are made of specially selected corrosion resistant materials
- Due to its light weight, the valve may be installed on plastic piping systems, as well as other lightweight piping
- A threaded drainage outlet enables removal of excess fluids
- The float is made for low sealing pressure (DG-10)
