Air Release Valve

Air release valves are designed to automatically remove trapped or accumulated air from pressurised piping systems. Removing unwanted air helps maintain efficient fluid flow, reduces operational problems caused by air pockets and protects piping, pumps, instruments and other system components. Automatic air release valves are commonly installed at high points in piping systems where trapped air naturally accumulates. During system filling or operation, the valve allows unwanted air to escape and automatically closes when liquid reaches the valve. For chemical processing and water treatment applications, corrosion-resistant thermoplastic air release valves provide an effective solution where conventional metallic valves may not be suitable. They can be used with water, chemicals and other compatible process liquids depending on the selected valve material. Watercare Products supplies industrial air release valves in Singapore, including Plast-O-Matic corrosion-resistant automatic air release valves for chemical and fluid-handling systems.
