Foot Valve Supplier in Nigeria Johannesburg

African valve is the top Foot Valve Supplier in Nigeria. A foot valve is a type of check valve commonly used in pumping systems to prevent backflow and maintain prime in suction lines. It is typically installed at the bottom of a vertical pipe or suction line in a well or reservoir, with the inlet facing downward. Inside the valve body, there is a check valve mechanism that allows fluid to flow in only one direction. This mechanism consists of a hinged flap or a spring-loaded disc that opens when fluid flows in the desired direction and closes to prevent backflow.

They are essential components in applications that require the transfer of liquids from a source to a destination. They are commonly used in water supply systems, irrigation systems, dewatering operations, and other pumping applications.

The reliability of their fluid systems with the support of a trusted Foot Valve Supplier in Nigeria, ensuring efficient and secure control of liquids

Advantages of Foot Valve:

These valves provide Backflow Prevention of fluids in the pipeline and help in maintaining the system integrity.

They help in maintaining fluid in the suction line and pump which reduce the need for re-priming after shutdowns

Provide efficient flow control

Feature with Quick Shut Off option in emergency

They protect the pump from the damage caused by the reverse flow,by preventing air from entering the system and causing cavitation. 

Use in various industry such as oil and gas, water treatment plant,oil and gas industry

They are easy to maintain and install.

Industries:

Water Supply Systems: Used in water tanks, well to maintain the prime of the pump and prevent backflow.

Dewatering Operations: Keeps the pump primed and prevents it from losing suction, ensuring continuous operation and effective dewatering

Industrial Pumping Systems: Used in the pumping system and maintain fluid levels and prevent contamination by stopping backflow.

Chemical Processing: Prevent from contamination of chemical fluids in the application

Water and Wastewater Treatment: Prevent air from entering the pump and causing cavitation.

Pulp and Paper: In the paper industry they are used to prevent reverse flow of slurries and high concentrated media. 

Power Generation: Use to prevent backflow of fluid, prevent contamination, and handle high pressure flow effectively.
