KARTAR DUCTILE IRON BALL TYPE FOOT VALVE (K 521)

Engineered for exceptional reliability at the suction end of pumping systems, this foot valve combines an innovative self-cleaning ball design with an integrated strainer to maintain pump prime effortlessly. The high-tensile ductile iron housing delivers maximum structural durability in a compact footprint, while the smooth internal pathway ensures minimal pressure drop during fluid extraction.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

  • Self-cleaning ball mechanism prevents clogging and ensures fail-proof sealing performance.
  • Compact design allows for quick installation in restricted sump or tank spaces.
  • Heavy-duty epoxy coating inside and out provides long-term resistance to corrosion.
  • Sturdy ductile iron build stands up to high pressure differentials at the suction lift.

Applications Suitable for

  • Suction Inlet Protection for Wastewater and Sewage Pumps
  • Dewatering and Industrial Sump Intake Lines
  • Agricultural Irrigation and Water Lifting Frameworks
  • Process Water Extraction and System Priming Protection
