OverviewBERMAD A30 is an automatic air release valve designed to efficiently evacuate air pockets from pressurized pipelines. Its compact, corrosion-resistant internal design ensures reliable air discharge and improved sealing at low pressures, supporting stable operation in water distribution and irrigation systems.
Key Features- Efficient air-pocket release from pressurized lines.
- Dynamic sealing preventing leakage down to 1.5 psi (0.1 bar).
- Compact, simple structure with fully corrosion-resistant internal parts to reduce maintenance.
- Factory-tested performance including vacuum and operational pressure conditions.
- Certified for functional and drinking-water standards.
Typical Applications- Pipelines: protection against air accumulation at high points and in long horizontal runs.
- Installed near control valves and water meters to avoid inaccurate pressure regulation and biased readings caused by trapped air.
