INSTALLATION
The installation of the valve is important for its
proper operation. Valves must be installed at the
system high points in the vertical position with the
inlet down. For pipeline service, a vault with freeze
protection, adequate screened venting, and
drainage should be provided. During closure, some
fluid discharge will occur so vent lines should extend
to an open drain area in plant service. A shut-off
valve should be installed below the valve in the
event servicing is required.
VALVE CONSTRUCTION
The standard Wastewater Air Release Valve body
and cover are cast iron. See the specific Materials
List submitted for the order if other than standard
cast iron construction. All internal components are
stainless steel with the exception of the orifice button
which is resilient. The general details of
construction are illustrated in Figure 2. The body (1)
is threaded for connection to the pipeline. The seat
(4) is threaded into the cast cover (2).
