Foot Valve

ValvesOnly is the top Foot Valve Manufacturers in USA. A foot valve is a type of valve that is Designed to installed in the end of a pipeline line to prevent backflow of fluids to the from the discharge pipe into the suction line when the pump is turned off. It functions as a check valve which allows fluid to flow in one direction only and prevent backflow, it consists of a strainer that helps to prevent debris or large particles from entering the pump and causing damage.

When the pump is operating the flow creates pressure which lifts the valve element and allows the fluids to pass through the valve, and when the pump stops the pressure decreases and allows the valve to close, this allows fluids to flow back in the suction line & prevent damage. Foot valves need proper inspection and cleaning of the filter to prevent clogging, provide reliable performance & protect downstream equipment. These valves are commonly used in water supply systems, dewatering operations, and other pumping applications, protecting equipment from damage due to debris and solids.
