Vacuum Valves

Accumulated air can cause catastrophes to the pipeline systems. Generation of vacuum leads to pipeline implosion or pressure transients. The preventive course is use of efficient Air Release valves & use of Anti-Vacuum Valves at the critical locations of the pipeline that are prone to vacuum generation. The R & D Multiple’s Anti- Vacuum valves are designed & manufactured to be extremely responsive & sensitive to the pressure decrease in the line. They instantly allow the entry of sufficient quantity of air at the slight hint of the inception of vacuum & preclude the possibility of vacuum build–up.
