Product Description
Cast Iron Foot Valves are used in suction side of the pumps to avoid flow reversal from pump to the sump, in order to maintain pump priming. They also prevent entry of foreign body into pump through suction pipe. These valves are suitable for having clear water within the limits specified by IS 4038.Engineered for VersatilityThese foot valves are compatible with a wide variety of media such as water, gas, oil, acid, and base, making them ideal for numerous industrial applications. Tailored specifically for hydraulic pumps, they withstand rigorous operational demands and excel in protecting pump integrity.

FAQs of Cast Iron Foot Valve:
Q: How does a Cast Iron Foot Valve function in hydraulic pumps?
A: A Cast Iron Foot Valve acts as a check valve at the pumps inlet, allowing fluid to enter while preventing backflow. This helps maintain pump priming and efficiency, particularly in hydraulic systems handling various media.
Q: What types of media can these foot valves handle?
A: Our Cast Iron Foot Valves are suitable for water, gas, oil, acid, and base, making them highly versatile for multiple applications across industrial sectors.
Q: When should a Cast Iron Foot Valve be replaced or serviced?
A: It is advisable to inspect and service the valve periodically based on pump usage and the nature of the media. Replace the valve if there are signs of wear, corrosion, or diminished performance to prevent system malfunction.
Q: Where are your foot valves primarily supplied and who can purchase them?
A: We supply our Cast Iron Foot Valves throughout India, serving dealers, distributors, exporters, manufacturers, suppliers, traders, fabricators, retailers, and wholesalers.
Q: What is the process for selecting the appropriate valve size?
A: Determine the required valve size (between 50mm and 200mm) based on your hydraulic systems inlet dimension and flow requirements. Our team can assist in choosing the right size for optimal performance.
Q: How does using a foot valve benefit hydraulic pump operations?
A: Installing a foot valve improves pump efficiency by preventing reverse flow, ensuring consistent priming, and extending pump longevity by reducing wear and tear.
