Foot Valves are a form of check valve, installed at the bottom of Pump suction line, inside the wet well. Foot valves are an inexpensive way to prime a single centrifugal pump. The Foot Valve is designed with a 10% larger flow area (including heavy stainless steel strainer) than the pipe size to insure minimal head loss. Since Foot Valves are continually submerged in the wet well and not readily accessible for inspection or repair, it is important to select a Foot Valve of high quality long wearing construction. APCO Foot Valves are such valves and have heavy cast iron bodies, rugged bronze internals and most importantly they have drop tight resilient seating to guarantee no loss of suction. The resilient seal is compression molded (not glued or chemically bonded) onto the seat for long life. Ratings 125# & 250# class. They are suitable for both Sewage and Water Suction Inlets. Series 100F |
