Operating media

Sewage water

Typical applications

  • Sewage rising mains
  • Force mains
  • Wastewater pump stations
  • Municipal sewer networks

Coatings

Fully fusion epoxy coated inside and outside of valve body

Approvals

ISO 9001EN 1074-4

Features

  • The SKSA is a sewage air release valve for pressurised sewage rising mains and force mains
  • The single-chamber design provides continuous small-orifice air release under operating pressure, venting accumulated air pockets to maintain hydraulic efficiency
  • The ball float mechanism resists clogging from fibres, greases and solids in municipal wastewater service
  • Compact body profile suits installations where space above the main is limited
  • Advanced design with simple mechanism, strong float to prevent cracking during sudden water hammer and quick closure
  • Aerokinetic mechanism resists blow-shut under high air velocity, even up to sonic velocity of air
  • Special fat body design lowers sewage water flow speed, letting air out while keeping sewage water underneath
  • Keeps dirty or corrosive liquid inside the body for safety during operation, with no harm to people or the surrounding environment
  • Internal body guide and upper round wall keep the float moving on its rail and contain liquid turbulence within that area
  • Much bigger air flow through the nozzle, even for higher-viscosity liquid
  • Optional outside screen guards against insects or birds entering
  • Fully fusion epoxy coated inside and outside for long-term service

Description

The SKSA is a sewage air release valve for pressurised sewage rising mains and force mains. The single-chamber design provides continuous small-orifice air release under operating pressure, venting accumulated air pockets to maintain hydraulic efficiency. The ball float mechanism resists clogging from fibres, greases and solids in municipal wastewater service. Compact body profile suits installations where space above the main is limited.

Selection notes

This air release valve is supplied for threaded installation.

Sizes run DN50, in 16 bar.

The body is EN-GJS-500-7.

Seat and trim options are NBR. The seat, not the body, usually sets the temperature and medium limit, so confirm it against the service before ordering.

Stated service media include sewage water.

It is catalogued for Water & Wastewater.

Working temperature is -10°C to 80°C.

Built to EN GJS 500-7, AISI 316, ANSI (flange), BS EN 1092 and BS EN 1092 (flange).

Supplier remarks

  • Datasheet flow charts (DN50): out-flow reaches a differential of about 0.04 bar at approximately 80-105 m3/h; in-flow (vacuum) reaches about -0.4 bar at approximately 2500 m3/h. Small orifice (1.4mm) rated to a maximum working pressure of approximately 20 bar.
