Series WWAV
Wastewater Air Vacuum Valves
The AirPro Max® Series WWAV Wastewater Air Vacuum Valves are specifically designed with elongated valve bodies. The purpose of the elongated bodies is to increase the gap between the float and the mechanical linkage inside and top of the valve body. The valve is designed to perform two critical functions. First, as the line is being filled with water they expel large quantities of air from the pipeline. When air has been completely vented, water enters the valve causing the float to seal tightly against the seat to prevent leakage. Second, when the line is drained, either intentionally or as a result of pipeline breakage, the Air Vacuum Valve responds to the drop in pressure and opens. Air then re-enters the valve and line eliminating the conditions which could lead to a damaging vacuum developing in the pipeline.
Air Vacuum Valves do not open when under pressure to exhaust small quantities of air that may collect at high points during operation of the system. A Series WWAR Air Release Valve is required for this function.
