AIREX DOUBLE FUNCTION AIR VALVE
- DN 50 - 60 - 65 - 80
- PN 10 – 16 – 25
The automatic double function air valve is installed on
pressurised water pipes to aid with emptying and filling
operations. When the pipe is being emptied, the air valve
prevents formation of dangerous low pressure areas and
speeds up the operation. When it is being filled, the air
valve rapidly releases air so that it cannot accumulate at
high points, where it would create problems as water
starts flowing through the pipe.
