How Does It Work?
When the body is full of liquid, the float is up and the air outlet is closed. When air gathers at the top, the liquid level falls, the float drops and the outlet opens to release the air.
Applications
- Liquid circuits
- Heat exchangers
- Heating coils
- Hot water boilers
- Tanks
Key Features
- On-site maintenance without removing it from the system
- Improves circulation and efficiency, reduces noise
- Ductile iron body, stainless internals
- Available in several sizes
Selection and Installation
Install the air vent at the high points where air collects.
