TLV
Automatic Air Vents
TLV Automatic Air Vents VC Series/VS Series
Continuously discharge air and gas that build up inside water supply pipes. TLV’s automatic air vents feature a relatively small orifice and are suitable for discharging air and other gases during normal operation. By installing them in places where air tends to accumulate, it is possible to prevent issues caused by air trapped in water supply pipes.
Air vents can also help to prevent a vacuum from forming in pipes. When the main valve is open and pressure inside the pipes falls below the pressure of the surrounding atmosphere, air will enter the valve, preventing vacuum conditions from forming and allowing liquid to be easily passed downstream.
Application areas: Rapid initial air vents are suitable for:
- processes which require the continuous discharge of air/gas under normal operation conditions
- water supply pipes, cooling & heating equipment (VC)
- suitable for non-water liquid processes (VSC1, non-flammable and non-corrosive liquids only)
