 Air Eliminator

The SP60ARV is a double-seated valve with a free moving plastic ball. The ball, which is lighter than water, closes against the upper and lower seat, depending on the pressure conditions. It is designed for operation with liquids having a specific gravity of 1.0 or higher.

The valve can be mounted on the top of a pipeline or container for bleeding a pipeline where an air pocket had formed during operation.
