FOOT VALVE IS 4038
Size : 25 to 450MM
Scope
A foot valve is generally placed at the lower end of the suction pipe of a centrifugal pump to prevent the suction pipe from emptying while the pump is at rest; consequently, when the pump is first started it does not have to exhaust the air from the suction pipe with the result that prompt starting of the pump is secured. Foot valve is particularly use- ful when the suction lift or vertical height of the pipe is considerable.
