Kinetic air valves are critical components in various fluid transportation systems, especially in water and wastewater management, as well as in industrial processes where the movement of air and gases must be carefully controlled. These valves play a crucial role in ensuring the efficiency, safety, and integrity of these systems Kinetic air valves, also known as air release valves or air vent valves, are engineered to manage the presence of air in liquid pipelines. Their primary function is to expel excess air or gases that accumulate within pipelines, preventing air pockets or vacuum conditions that can compromise the system's performance and lead to potential damage. These valves are essential for maintaining the optimal operational conditions of pipelines, protecting them from issues like water hammer, corrosion, and inefficiencies in fluid flow.
