What all to know before buying TSE air release valves?

What are air release valves?

 

The air release valves function for releasing air pockets that get collected at every high point in a fully pressurised pipeline. The air release valve can easily open against the internal pressures as the mechanism of the internal lever multiplies float force to be higher than internal pressure. The TSE air release valves work best for treated sewage effluent systems.

 

Why choose air release valves?

 

When the air gets trapped in the system's pipeline then naturally it will rise & get collected at the highest point in the system. Those trapped air can be the cause of pump failures, rusting, error-laden instrumentation readings & water hammers. Unnecessary air makes your pump work much harder and that results in extra energy consumption. Sometimes, ait in the system pipeline can be caused not because of improper installation but for the failure in properly deaeration of the line.

 

A line obstruction may occur when air gets accumulated at the highest points in your pipeline system and line restriction boosts head losses. As the fluid gets forced, velocity also increases and when velocity increases high-pressure surge or water hammer can happen. There are huge consequences of permitting air accumulation in the pipeline system's highest points.

 

The main aim of air release valves is to constantly discharge excess air from the system, It will ultimately result in efficient & smooth operation. Usage of TSE air release valves can efficiently release water in your treated sewage effluent system.

 

Benefits of using air release valves:

 

a)Protects your pipeline-

 

The air release valves work automatically and they are specially designed to be rust-resistant to offer protection to the pipeline system. It avoids air pockets & controls airflow in the pipe.

The air release valves offer protection to the pipes from breaking/collapsing because of negative pressure.

 

b)Settles air entrapment problems

 

The air trapped in the pipeline can efficiently lessen or stop liquid flow in the pipeline. When this occurs, issues like weak flow, damaged pumps etc can also occur. The air release valves rectify air entrapment problems.

 

c) Ensuring safe operations

 

To control air is complex, especially at the time of operation in the pipeline system. Release of the entrapped air can be extremely dangerous if it is not managed properly. Even chances of great dangers can be there caused by escaping air.

 

d) Energy efficient

 

One of the biggest advantages of using air release valves is - energy consumption becomes very less as it controls excessive air. Excessive air in your pipeline can reduce the capacity of your pipeline system and boost the power. The TSE air release valves can be effectively energy efficient for your water treatment system.

 

When you allow the air to get accumulated in your pumping system, chances of damage to the mechanical tools increase and your system's efficiency is also sacrificed. If the pumping system experiences pressure surges, efficiency gets lowered but the implementation of TSE air release valves can be a piece of great equipment, to begin with.
