Air Release Valve

Air Release Valve

An air release valve, also known as an air vent valve or an air relief valve, is a device commonly used in irrigation systems to remove air or gases that may accumulate in the system. It is designed to automatically release trapped air, ensuring efficient and uninterrupted water flow.

Air Release Valves, or Air Relief Valve function to release air pockets that collect at each high point of a full pressured pipeline. An air release valve can open against internal pressure, because the internal lever mechanism multiplies the float force to be greater than the internal pressure. This greater force opens the orifice whenever air pockets collect in the valve. Air Release Valves are essential for pipeline efficiency and water hammer protection.
