The new injected foot valve screens replace the company's fabricated foot valve screens. Unlike fabricated foot valve screens, moulded foot valve screens provide a repeatable screen filtering pattern for uniform flow characteristics.
The injected foot valve screens are suitable for use when a ball check valve is located in a tank on the suction side of a pump, the screens can filter out larger debris before it can become lodged inside the valve, pump or process line.
The foot valve screens are a one-piece structure that adapt to a ball check valve using a union nut. The screens can be field-installed by directly mounting it to new or existing Asahi ball check valves.
The moulded foot valve screens are available in PVC, CPVC, PP and PVDF and the screens are available from ½ in through to 4 in with flanged, socket or threaded end connections.
