Irritec Kinetic Air Vent and Vacuum Relief Valve (Protected Outlet)

Description: Air/Vacuum Relief Valves deliver optimum performance and increased efficiency of an irrigation system by preventing air-lock problems and back suctioning of debris into the lines. The Air/Vacuum Relief Valve allows air to escape during the system's initial start and until the pipe or drip lines are full of water. It also allows air to enter back into the system when the zone is turned off. The Air/Vacuum Relief Valve helps prevent clogging in sub-surface drip irrigation systems resulting from back suction of debris under vacuum conditions. Install the Air Vacuum Relief Valve at the highest point of a drip line installation.Features:Reduces maintenance requirements and extend drip system lifeSmooth and reliable operationEliminates air pockets within a system zoneReleases air from the drip line when the zone is turned onAllow air to freely enter the system when the zone is shut downBall float design offers perfect sealing under very low system pressureEasy to handle and maintainConstructed of UV-resistant, durable plastic material to withstand the most adverse conditionsInstall the Air Vacuum Relief Valve after the drip zone, along the drip line laterals and at the highest point in the drip system layout.
