Brass Air Release Valve

Product Features

● Automatic Air Release: Continuously discharges accumulated air during normal operation.
● Float-Operated Mechanism: Controls the air outlet automatically according to the internal liquid level.
● Brass Body Construction: Provides good corrosion resistance for compatible water-service applications.
● Compact Threaded Design: Suitable for installation at high points and air-collecting locations.
● Automatic Shut-Off: The float closes the outlet when liquid reaches the specified operating level.
● Serviceable Structure: Selected configurations allow cleaning and inspection of internal components.
● No External Power Required: Operates automatically without an actuator.

Overview

Overview

The Brass Air Release Valve is designed to automatically discharge accumulated air from water supply, HVAC, heating, and other closed-loop liquid piping systems.

Air trapped inside a pipeline can reduce flow capacity, cause noise, increase energy consumption, and interfere with normal system operation. The internal float mechanism automatically opens the air outlet when air accumulates and closes it when the liquid reaches the specified level, helping maintain stable and efficient system performance.

Size Range

● NPS 1/2\”–2\” (DN15–DN50)

 

Pressure Rating

● PN10 / PN16

Pressure rating, discharge capacity, and connection size should be selected according to system pressure, pipeline volume, and required air-release performance.

 

Standards

● Design and Performance: EN 1074-4 for applicable water-supply air-valve configurations
● General Water-Supply Valve Requirements: EN 1074-1
● Inspection and Testing: EN 12266-1, where applicable
● Thread Connection: ISO 228-1
● Optional Thread Standards: ISO 7-1 or ASME B1.20.1 NPT upon request

Other connection sizes, pressure ratings, float materials, and technical requirements can be discussed with the factory.

Industry Applications

Industry Applications

● Building water supply
● HVAC circulation systems
● Heating systems
● Chilled-water systems
● Water treatment systems
● Pumping systems
● General closed-loop liquid pipelines

The valve should normally be installed vertically at pipeline high points, manifolds, equipment outlets, or other locations where air may accumulate. It should not be confused with a safety relief valve or pressure-reducing valve.
