The KV7710 Single Chamber Triple Function Air Release Valve is designed for automatic air management in pressurized water pipeline systems. Its compact and robust construction provides reliable air release and intake during different pipeline operating conditions.
The valve combines three essential air management functions: air release during normal operation, large-volume air intake during pipeline draining and air discharge during pipeline filling.
The Single Chamber Triple Function Air Release Valve is an automatic float-operated valve developed for water pipeline applications. The valve helps manage accumulated air and supports stable hydraulic performance during pipeline filling, draining and normal operation.
The SS Float construction provides a durable internal component, while the compact single-chamber design allows the valve to be integrated into a wide range of pipeline systems.
Provides automatic air release during operation, air intake during pipeline draining and air discharge during filling.
Stainless steel float construction provides durability and corrosion resistance for water pipeline applications.
Single chamber construction provides a compact, simple and robust solution for automatic pipeline air management.
Corrosion-resistant internal components support reliable long-term operation in suitable water services.
EPDM sealing provides reliable closure and supports dependable valve performance.
The robust design is intended for reliable operation with reduced routine maintenance requirements.
Releases accumulated air from the pipeline during normal operation while the pipeline remains under pressure.
Allows air to enter the pipeline during draining and helps reduce the risk of vacuum conditions.
Allows large quantities of air to escape during pipeline filling before the system reaches normal operating conditions.

During pipeline filling, the valve allows accumulated air to escape from the pipeline. This helps remove large quantities of air before the pipeline reaches its normal operating condition.
During normal operation under pressure, the valve automatically releases smaller quantities of accumulated air from the pipeline.
During pipeline draining, the float mechanism allows air to enter the pipeline. This helps reduce the possibility of vacuum formation inside the pipeline.
The KV7710 design and testing requirements are based on applicable international and Indian standards for air valves and valve testing.
Triple Function Air Release Valves are generally installed at pipeline high points and locations where air accumulation can occur. They may also be installed at suitable points where air intake is required during pipeline draining.
Proper valve sizing and installation should consider pipeline diameter, operating pressure, filling and draining rates and the required air-release capacity.
A Triple Function Air Release Valve is an automatic air valve designed to release accumulated air during normal operation, discharge large quantities of air during pipeline filling and admit air during pipeline draining.
KV7710 is a model designation for a Single Chamber Triple Function Air Release Valve with a stainless steel float.
The KV7710 configuration covered here is available for PN10 and PN16 pressure classes.
The stainless steel float responds to water-level changes inside the valve chamber and controls the opening and closing of the air passage.
The supplied product information specifies EPDM sealing for reliable valve closure.
