The Beaver AB Series Air Valve is a combination air valve with two main functions: removing large amounts of air during the filling process and admitting air into the pipeline while it’s being emptied.
For the body lining, this custom-built valve uses Slurryflex Grade-A rubber, a specialty rubber compound that exhibits excellent resilience against wear and abrasion. The lining can be further customised with other materials, including custom-engineered polymer, to further boost abrasion resistance.
The Beaver AB Series Air Valve is specifically engineered for demanding slurry applications and other severe services involving undissolved solids.
