Waterworks

High Pressure, Automatic Air Release Valve

Description
A.R.I. S-015, S-016, S-100 are high pressure Automatic Air Release Valves.
Installed on pressurized liquid transmission systems, the Air Valves are
designed to release accumulated air, optimizing pipeline hydraulic efficiency
by reducing head losses and improving flow.

Installation
– On high-pressure pumps
– On high-pressure transmission pipelines

Operation

Automatic Air Release One-way Out

 S-015, S-016, S-100

Features and Benefits

Air release valve orifice Covers a wide pressure range (up to 100 bar)

High capacity air discharge, while system is under pressure

Aaerodynamic design
Saves energy and increases system efficiency

Leak-free sealing over a wide range of pressure differentials

Aair release valve rolling seal
Lessens obstruction by debris due to its uniqe design

Simple product design easy to install and to maintain

Installation and maintenance Reduces down time

No need to disconnect the valve from the main line for maintenance procedures

Construction materials Non-corrosive and durable

Certification is conditional on the customer connecting the designated part on the

ATEX certified air valves product to a dedicated ground connection point

NSF/ANSI 61 Certified & Listed Certification for drinking water system component
