The D-060 Combination Air Valve is designed to automatically release small pockets of air to the atmosphere as they accumulate along a pipeline or piping system when it is full and operating under pressure and to automatically discharge or admit large volumes of air during the filling or draining of a pipeline or piping system. Now in 1" (25 mm) also!
The Underground Systems combine the reliable and efficient properties of the A.R.I. air valves for wastewater and water supply with the added feature of a sub-surface valve that can be buried below ground. Since the service and maintenance operations of the unit are performed entirely from the surface, there is no need for safety considerations associated with confined space entry.
A.R.I is introducing ARIavCAD 2009, a software program for the sizing and location of air valves. The software is user-friendly, professional and helps its users to save money and time in choosing, sizing and locating the proper air valves for their pipelines.ARIavCAD 2009 will allow the design engineer to develop a graphic display for the variables that are needed to determine the number and types of air valves their systems will need. Choosing the proper location and the suitable valves will contribute to the efficient and smooth performance of the system. The software will also display a table with a summary of air valves required, classified by size and model.
K-060 VB – High Flow Vacuum Breaker for Wastewater and Water Supply Applications - protects the system by opening quickly to automatically admit large quantities of air into the system at and below internal atmospheric pressure. The K-060 VB is suitable for water conveyance systems and wastewater conveyance systems.
