Sewer Air Valve

The Sewer Air Valve (NuVent ISFbl Series) is a double-acting, triple-function anti-slam air valve purpose-built for sewage and slurry duty. It discharges large air volumes during pipeline filling, admits air to break vacuum during draining or pump trip, and releases pressurised air during normal operation — with an integral anti-slam (bias) mechanism that controls the rate of air discharge to prevent slam and protect wastewater rising mains and pump stations.
