Description
The "Guardian" V-010 air and vacuum valve ("Kinetic") admits air to the system while it is being emptied, and discharges air during the filling or charging of the system.
Operation
The valve must admit air into the pipeline at high flow rates during its drainage and should discharge air at high flow rates during the filling of the pipeline. The valve should be designed to prevent premature closing and discharge air up to 0.7 bar (10 psi) differential pressure.
Pressure:
0.2 - 10 bar (3 - 150 psi)

Description
The Kinetic Air Valve K-010 ("Low pressure" - "Large orifice" - "Air & Vacuum") discharge air during the filling or charging of the system, and admits air to the system during system drainage.
Operation
The valve must discharge air at high velocity, during filling of the system and admit air during its drainage. The valve should be designed to prevent premature closing and discharge air up to 0.8 bar (11 psi) differential pressure.
Pressure
0.2 - 16 bar (3 - 230 psi)
Testing Pressure: 25 Atm. (350 psi)

Description
The Kinetic Air Valve for High Pressure, K-012, K-014, K-016 (also called "Low pressure" - "Large orifice" - "Air & Vacuum") discharges air during the filling or charging of the system, and admits air to the system during system drainage. (Since both operations occur when the pipe is not full, the valve is sometimes called "Low Pressure").
The valve was specially designed to withstand pressures as high as 100 bar (1400 psi), thus, our specification of "High Pressure".
Operation
The valve will discharge air at high velocity while the system is filling and admits air during its drainage. The valve will be designed to prevent premature closing.
Pressure
High pressure category from 25 - 100 bar (350 - 1400 psi)
Testing pressure: 1.5 x maximum working pressure
