AIREX TRIPLE FUNCTION AIR VALVE
- DN 40 - 50 - 60 - 65 - 80 - 100 - 150
- PN 10 – 16 – 25
The triple function AIREX automatic vent is used on pressurized
pipelines for the entry and exit of large air flows and degassing
of the air accumulated on the altimetric peaks.
Important volumes of air must in fact enter the pipeline during
the delicate phase of emptying the pipeline and in any case in
case of accidental breakage of the same, to contain the depression
and its vacuum effect. As many volumes of air must be able to
escape from the duct during the filling phase. The third function
is the expulsion of air or emulsion of air and water,
accumulated during normal service in the high points of the pipeline;
for this purpose, it must be installed on each elevation peak of
the pipeline, intended as a change in slope.
This valve provides an effective and reliable solution in typical
working conditions, such as aqueducts and irrigation and industrial systems.
