Foot Valve Vertical Campanion Flange, Vertical Foot Valve

Foot Valve Vertical Companion Flange

Price range: $273.91 through $1,043.77

This Vertical Companion Flange Foot Valve is made out of lightweight and durable aluminum.

Ample space is provided for the valve flapper to get out of the water stream, and the full size opening means minimum friction loss.

This foot valve matches the bolt pattern of a standard 125 pound cast iron companion flange or a schedule 80 PVC flange.

The hump on the body must face up when it is used in a horizontal or near horizontal position.

Please see the chart for available sizes. We can get the 10″ and 12″ from our vendor but we have to call to get cost, freight costs and estimated ship times.

Note: Every valve will leak if there is no head pressure pushing down and sealing the flapper. Head pressure comes from the vertical down pressure of the volume of water above the valve. The weight of the 4 vertical feet of head pressure will push down and seal the valve. Below is a diagram showing how to measure the four feet of vertical lift from the water surface up to the centerline of the pump.

Description

Description

The Foot Valve Vertical Companion Flange is a specialized irrigation component designed to maintain pump priming and prevent backflow in fluid transfer systems. This foot valve incorporates a companion flange, which allows it to be securely bolted to pipelines or pumps for a leak-proof and reliable connection. The vertical orientation ensures efficient water intake while keeping the suction line free of air and debris.

Features:

Vertical Design: Optimized for water intake at the base of the suction line, preventing airlocks and maintaining consistent water flow.
Companion Flange Connection: Provides a secure, bolted attachment to pipelines or pumps, ensuring a tight seal and easy maintenance.
Backflow Prevention: Equipped with a check valve that closes when the pump stops, keeping the line primed and preventing water from draining back.
Durable Materials: Typically constructed from corrosion-resistant materials such as brass, cast iron, or stainless steel for longevity in outdoor and agricultural environments.
Strainer Feature: Often includes a strainer to block debris, protecting the pump from clogs and wear.

Benefits:

Pump Efficiency: Maintains prime in the suction line, reducing the time and energy required to start the pump.
Prevents Damage: Protects pumps by ensuring they do not run dry, extending their operational lifespan.
Leak-Proof Connection: The companion flange ensures a secure and durable joint, minimizing water loss.
Easy Installation and Maintenance: Flanged connections simplify setup and provide straightforward access for servicing.
Versatile Application: Suitable for irrigation, water transfer, and fluid handling in agricultural systems.

The Foot Valve Vertical Companion Flange is essential for reliable and efficient irrigation systems, ensuring consistent water flow and protecting critical equipment.
