What is PVDF Air Release Valve?
PVDF is the combination air valve has the characteristics of both an Air Release Valve and vacuum valve. In pressurized pipe systems, an automatic air pass valve is essential.
It will gradually rise upwards and accumulate at the highest points of the system. Pump breakdown, incorrect instrumentation measurements, malfunctions, flow problems, and water spurts or pressure spikes can all be caused by trapped air. Air in the tube also makes the pump work harder, which uses more power.

The purpose of the VA air release is to eliminate any air entering the pipe with the liquid.
- Connection system for solvent weld and threaded joints.
- No metal parts in contact with the fluid.
- Can be used as a vacuum breaker valve when installed with the nut at the bottom.
- Valve material compatibility (PVC-U) with water, drinking water and other food substance conveyance according to current regulations.
- Can be maintained with the valve body installed.
