VAL-MATIC Air Release/Air Vacuum Valve: Clean Water, Cast Iron, 3 in Inlet Connection Size

A VAL-MATIC combination air release/air vacuum valve is used in clean water pipelines to automatically exhaust large volumes of air during system filling and admit air during draining, while also releasing accumulated air under pressure. This prevents vacuum collapse, reduces surge damage, and improves system efficiency in municipal water, irrigation, and industrial applications.

The VAL-MATIC 20C03-6CT-C6B5Y is a cast iron combination vacuum and air release valve with a 3-inch FNPT inlet connection. It is designed for clean water service and manufactured by VAL-MATIC. The valve body is cast iron, and the inlet connection size is 3 inches, making it suitable for medium-to-large pipeline systems.

VAL-MATIC air release valves are available to order through 3G Electric, a global industrial equipment distributor. We source and deliver this valve worldwide, handling full logistics, customs clearance, and delivery to your site. Contact 3G Electric for pricing and lead time on the VAL-MATIC 20C03-6CT-C6B5Y or other models.

Install the VAL-MATIC combination air valve vertically with the inlet connection at the lowest point, typically on a tee or flange at high points in the pipeline. Ensure the valve is clean and free of debris before installation. Use appropriate thread sealant on the FNPT connection and support the valve weight. Follow standard pipeline practices for isolation and testing.
