5.  VALVES OPERATION 

 

 

INFLATION-DEFLATION VALVE operation:  

 

Inflation-deflation valve has PUSHPUSH operating system: pressing the central pin the 
valve switches between OPEN and CLOSED. To inflate the tube put the pin to CLOSED 
position (pin moves UP). To deflate the tube put the pin to OPEN position (pin moves 
DOWN). After inflation every valve must be closed with the valve plug tight to ensure 
airtightness of the tube.  

  

 

OVERPRESSURE VALVE operation:  

 

 Overpressure valve protects the boat against unexpected pressure increase over the 
maximum working limit. In case of any tube pressure increase or overinflating the gasket of 
the valve will open automatically, release all excessive air and bring the tube pressure to 
nominal.  Make sure that the valve cup is always clean. Check the valve operation during 
boat maintenance.
