Kartar Air Valves are designed to automatically release trapped air and admit air into pipelines, ensuring smooth and efficient operation of water distribution systems. They help prevent air pockets, vacuum formation, water hammer, and pipeline damage, thereby improving system efficiency and extending pipeline life. These valves are widely used in water supply, irrigation, sewage, fire protection, and industrial utility systems. Design & Construction: Body Material: Cast Iron (CI) / Ductile Iron (DI) Float Material: Stainless Steel (SS304) / Polypropylene (model dependent) Internal Components: Stainless Steel Seat Material: Nitrile Rubber (NBR) / EPDM Cover: Bolted Cover End Connection: Flanged Ends (PN10 / PN16) Standards & Specifications: Pressure Rating: PN10 / PN16 Available Sizes: DN25 (25 mm) to DN200 (200 mm) Flange Standard: IS / BS / EN Standard Drilling Testing: Hydraulic Shell & Seat Test as per applicable standards Features: Automatic air release during pipeline operation Admits air during pipeline emptying to prevent vacuum Prevents air locking and water hammer Corrosion-resistant construction Low maintenance and long service life Reliable float-operated mechanism Suitable for above-ground and underground pipeline installations Easy installation and servicing Applications: Water Supply & Distribution Networks Irrigation Systems Pumping Stations Water Treatment Plants Sewage & Wastewater Systems Fire Fighting Networks Industrial Utility Pipelines Municipal Infrastructure Projects Advantages: Eliminates trapped air from pipelines Protects pipelines from vacuum collapse Reduces water hammer effects Improves flow efficiency and pump performance Durable, leak-proof construction Long operational life with minimal maintenance Manufactured under ISO 9001-certified quality systems by Kartar Valves.
