Do you need to prime a pump to remove gas and air from your pump and suction pipe?

The Automatic Discharge Priming Valve is designed to automatically expel air or gas from the pump and suction piping during the priming process. It typically consists of a valve body with an inlet and an outlet, along with an internal mechanism that senses the presence of air or gas. When air or gas is detected, the valve opens to allow the expulsion of the air or gas from the system, thereby facilitating the priming process.

By using the 4″x4″ Automatic Discharge Priming Valve, pump operators can ensure that your centrifugal pump systems are properly primed, leading to optimal pump performance and preventing potential issues caused by air or gas accumulation.

We not only stock new discharge priming valves, but also the replacement parts.
