ERHARD TWIN-AIR

Product catalog summary
Overview: The ERHARD TWIN-AIR® air valves are designed for automatic air release and admission in pipelines, particularly suitable for larger pipe networks. They ensure safe ventilation during filling, operational air release, and draining processes. The compact design features two nozzles for high ventilation performance.
Specifications: The valve body and cover are made from ductile cast iron with options for enamel or epoxy coatings. Float balls vary by size, with smaller sizes using multichamber GRP and larger sizes using austenitic CrNi steel. The body seat is made of EPDM, and connecting bolts are stainless steel.
Applications: These valves are used for potable water pipelines, with special designs available upon request. They operate under a minimum pressure of 0.2 bar and a maximum of 40 bars, with a temperature limit of 60°C.
Dimensions and Weights: The document provides detailed dimensions and weights for various nominal sizes (DN 50 to DN 200), including flange diameters and orifice cross-sections.
Pressure Ratings: The valves are tested according to DIN EN 12266 standards, with pressure ratings ranging from PN 10 to PN 40, depending on the nominal size.
Air Flow Capacities: The document includes diagrams illustrating air evacuation and admission capacities. It highlights the importance of selecting the appropriate valve size based on working conditions and provides recommended limits for filling and emptying pipelines to prevent water hammer and ensure efficient operation.
Engineering Details: The document emphasizes the precision engineering of the valves, suitable for various applications in water and energy management. It notes that specifications may change without notice and highlights the expertise of TALIS in providing comprehensive water cycle solutions.

ERHARD TWIN-AIR® AIR VALVES The valve for automatic air release and air admission of pipelines Thanks to its large cross-section and the very high ventilation speeds, the ERHARD TWIN-AIR air valve is ideal for use in larger pipe networks and guarantees safe pipe ventilation during the filling process, operational air release being in service and during the draining process. Notwithstanding the high performance, the construction is compact and space-saving. The ERHARD TWIN-AIR Air Valve has two nozzles. Air can first escape via both orifices in the pipe filling process which means high ventilation...

AIR OUTFLOW AND INFLOW CAPACITIES The suitable valve size is selected on the basis of the actual working conditions. Air capacity For air capacities, see diagrams on the right: 1. evacuation via the large orifice (filling the pipeline). The air flow rate Q Air is identical with the inflowing water rate. 2. evacuation via the small orifice (under working pressure). Air 3. admission via the large orifice (emtpying the pipeline). The air flow rate Air Q is identical with the outflowing water rate. Extreme air rate demand If one single air valve cannot comply with the specified outflow and inflow...
