FOOT VALVE

Description of FOOT VALVE

La foot valve It has a movable lid type closure. This closure rotates on an axis that opens and closes it. When connecting the suction. The current opens the lid and the water circulates normally, but when the flow stops, the lid returns to its closed position. These valves have a closure that allows total tightness at very low pressure, ensuring that the emptying of the pipe is minimal.
