The Philmac X295 Triple Action Combination Air Release Valve is engineered to deliver maximum air management performance in demanding irrigation and water transfer systems. Designed to perform three essential functions—high-volume air intake, high-volume air expulsion, and automatic release of small trapped air pockets—the X295 ensures stable system pressure, protects pipelines from vacuum damage, and maintains efficient hydraulic flow across the entire network.

Built from advanced UV- and impact-resistant thermoplastic materials, the X295 offers exceptional durability in outdoor agricultural and industrial environments. Its precision-engineered internal mechanism includes a buoyant long-life polystyrene float, a robust body design, and a reliable sealing system that ensures consistent operation even under variable pressure conditions. With its combination action, the X295 is ideal for high points, long pipelines, pump stations, filtration systems, and installations where both rapid and fine air control are critical.

The X295 is available in 1" and 2" BSP sizes, making it suitable for a wide range of irrigation and water infrastructure setups. Whether used in high-flow agricultural lines or complex reticulation systems, this valve enhances system efficiency, reduces water hammer, and improves the operational lifespan of pumps, filters and pipelines.

FEATURES
