DFV10 Foot Valve

The Foot Valve with Check Valve, offered by DEVINSAN, is specifically designed for installation on the suction side of a pump. Its primary function is to maintain pump prime during pumping cycles, while also preventing debris from entering the piping system. Engineered to minimize head loss and optimize pumping efficiency, our Foot Valve is a reliable solution for various applications.

The Foot Valve plays a crucial role in maintaining pump prime between pumping cycles. By creating a sealed connection on the suction side of the pump, it prevents the medium from flowing backward and ensures continuous operation. Equipped with a strainer, the valve effectively filters out debris, safeguarding the pump and the entire system from potential damage.

The resilient seating of our Foot Valve ensures complete closure of the valve disc, preventing any backflow or leakage. Additionally, we offer the option of metal-seated foot valves for applications requiring enhanced durability and resistance to demanding operating conditions. Our valves are meticulously designed and manufactured to provide long-lasting performance and reliable sealing.

To optimize operational safety, our Foot Valve incorporates a spring mechanism that ensures the valve closes prior to any backflow reaching it. This effectively minimizes surge conditions and prevents pressure fluctuations within the system. The silent axial check valve mechanism enables rapid and quiet operation, enhancing overall system efficiency and performance.

The Foot Valve utilizes a filter mechanism to prevent various contaminants from entering the pipeline and potentially damaging the pump. With its globe-shaped body design, the foot valve is specifically engineered to minimize head loss, allowing for efficient fluid flow and reducing energy consumption. It can be installed vertically with the direction of flow upwards, further optimizing performance.
