Philmac Poly Threaded Full Flow Foot Valve (Non Return)

Engineered to meet rigorous standards, the Philmac Foot and Non-Return Valve excels in performance and longevity. Whether used in agricultural, industrial, or residential settings. With its seamless conversion into a Non-Return Valve by removing the filter, it is versatile and ideal for protecting pipelines from backflow and safeguarding valuable equipment like pumps from potential damage caused by draining.

FEATURES:

• Made from Advanced Materials: Manufactured from lightweight high performance thermoplastic materials which have excellent impact, UV and corrosion resistance. The material is non-toxic and taint free.
• Low Pressure Shut-off: Designed to seal off at 20 kPa making them well suited to gravity feed systems
• Piston & Seal: The seal remains the same proven design which allows it to reliably seal at low pressure.
• High Pressure Rating: Foot and non-return valves are rated to 1600 kPa (static shutoff) to meet the requirements of high pressure systems.
• Flow Path: Improved flow path minimising turbulent zones.
• Multi-position Installation: The valves have been designed to work in either vertical or horizontal position for flexible installation.

INSTALLATION 

• Apply PTFE tape or approved sealant to the male thread the non-return/foot valveis to be screwed onto. Sufficient tape needs to be applied to ensure a water tight seal.
• Screw the valve onto male thread by hand
  until firm. Confirm the correct orientation of the valve by checking the water direction arrow is pointing downstream.
• Using a pipe wrench or multi-grips further screw the non-return/foot valve onto the male thread until tight. Where necessary ensure the male thread is held stationary to avoid it from moving. Do not use pipe wrench or multi-grips
  on the body of the nonreturn/ foot valve.
