FOOT VALVE MANUFACTURERS IN GERMANY

Valvesonly Europe is a prominent Foot Valve Manufacturer in Germany, offering high-quality and reliable valves specifically suited to retain pump priming as well as avoid backflow. Our foot valves are extensively used in suction-side pumping applications in various industries.

What is a Foot Valve?

A foot valve is a kind of non-return valve mounted at the inlet of the suction line for a pump. It is equipped with an in-built strainer and keeps the pump primed by allowing liquid into the pump and preventing it from flowing back to the source.

Why Required?

Foot valves are critical for pumps to retain suction and prevent damage from dry running. They ensure system integrity by halting reverse flow and preventing debris from entering the pump, thus prolonging its life.

Major Components of Foot Valve

• Valve Body
• Disc or Poppet
• Spring Mechanism (optional)
• Strainer Screen
• Seat and Gasket

Working Mechanism

When the pump is begun, the vacuum created opens the foot valve, and fluid flows into the system. When the pump is stopped, gravity or back pressure closes the valve to prevent backflow and retain the priming of the pump for the next operation.

Advantages of Foot Valve

• Reduces backflow and dry running
• Retains pump priming
• Filters out debris and particles
• Improves pump performance and efficiency
• Simple to install and maintain

Functions of Foot Valve

• Permits one-way flow into the pump
• Traps liquid in the suction line
• Safeguards the pump against solid impurities
• Eliminates water hammer
