S-050 | Automatic Air Release Valve for Industry

Description

Main Features

• Working pressure range:
  • S-050 0.2 - 16 bar
• Test pressure for the air valve is 1.5 times its working pressure.
• Maximum working temperature: 60° C.
• Maximum intermittent temperature: 90° C.

Note: For applications requiring a working temperature above the maximum stated or below 50 C., please consult first with the A.R.I. Applications Engineering Dept.

• The body is made of high strength composite materials and all operating parts are made of specially selected corrosion- resistant materials.
• The large orifice enables air release at higher flow rates.
• The enlarged orifice is less exposed to obstruction by debris.
• The valve’s rolling seal mechanism design is less sensitive to different pressures than a direct float seal, thus enabling a one size orifice for a wide pressure range (from 0.2 up to 25 bar).
• Lightweight, simple and reliable structure.
• A discharge outlet enables connection of a vent/drain pipe.

Valve Selection

• Available in male threaded sizes: 1/2”, 3/4”, 1” - BSP / NPT
• S-050, rated for 16 bar.
• S-050 V Vacuum check valve - Available as a valve that will only release air from the system and will not admit air to the system when negative pressure conditions occur. This characteristic is obtained by adding a check valve to the air outlet.
