Air release valve manufacturer in Brazil

Air release valve manufacturer in Brazil

South American Valve is a leading Air Release valve manufacturer in Brazil. Liquid pipe systems that are intended to automatically release accumulated air or gases must have an air release valve. Through the prevention of air pockets that could reduce flow efficiency, raise pressure, or cause water hammer effects, it helps to maintain ideal operating conditions. These valves are placed strategically at high points or places where air can build up in pipelines, like bends or the top of a hill. They are activated automatically when air is present. The valve opens to release trapped air into the atmosphere, allowing liquids to flow through the system continuously and effectively.

To stop liquid from escaping, the valve shuts after the air has been released. In water distribution networks, wastewater treatment plants, irrigation systems, and other industrial applications where maintaining smooth fluid flow is essential, air release valves are indispensable due to their ability to protect pipelines, pumps, and other components from potential damage caused by air buildup.

What function does the air valve serve?

During the filling and operation of a piping system, air valves—hydro mechanical devices with an internal float mechanism—are used to release trapped air and wastewater gases. In order to maintain a positive pressure during draining, they also guarantee air intake.
Bends and elbows in pipelines frequently trap air. Because the elbow is a likely source of trapped air, it is therefore thought to be best practice to put the air valve as close to the elbow as feasible. Installing a tee in place of a bend is a backup plan if this is not feasible for your pipeline.
