Performance
Performance curve details the quantity of air
vented by the “Float Vent” according to the
pressure in the system
.
Note:
In order to get the best results in
venting air from risers, use connecting pipes
of at least 1⁄2" diameter between the “Float
Vent” valves and installation.
Installation
When the air vent valve is installed as shown,
the air will not be vented while the fluid is
circulating in the system, but it can vent when
the system is shut off.
The figure below shows the installation of the
vent valve for the venting of air while the
fluid is circulating in the system and the
required increase in pipe size in order to
obtain proper separation of air from water.
The valve should be mounted only in a
vertical position as its operation is based on
the vertical movement of the float.
While the air vent valve is in operation, back
off the small vent cap two turns. This is the
proper operating setting which will allow air
to be vented from the system. It is advisable
to leave the cap on to prevent impurities from
entering the valve.
