Description

The CSA Mod. Lynx 3F-RFP, is a compact high-quality single chamber triple function combination air valve with a built-in anti-water hammer non-slam surge prevention system. The air valve allows release of air pockets from pressurized pipelines, and admits large volumes of air in the event of pipe draining/burst, to prevent vacuum and negative pressure conditions. During outflow, the air valves sense the increase in air velocity and differential pressure using, if required by excessive values, the RFP (anti-surge) flat to control the air outflow rate. As a result, the valves avoid fast approaches of water column with potential sudden closures of the mobile block and the associated risk of water hammer.

Entirely made in ductile cast iron, with air release system and seat in stainless steel, Lynx 3F-RFP stands out for its long-lasting performance and reliability.

Valves are manufactured to Australian requirements such as AS4020 , AS4158 , AS4087 and are tested in an fully accredited testing laboratory by SAI Global
