Swing Type
The Foot Valve – Swing Type is a non-return valve installed at the bottom of a suction pipe in pumping systems. It features a swing mechanism with a hinged disc that opens to allow fluid flow and closes to prevent backflow. Equipped with a strainer, this valve also filters out debris, protecting the pump and ensuring smooth operation. Its robust and efficient design makes it suitable for water, non-corrosive liquids, and light chemicals in various industrial and commercial applications.
