Datasheet and documents

Description

Anti-shock water combination air valve for underground installations

The CSA Mod. Saturno AS is a complete assembly including the CSA anti-water hammer single chamber double function air valve and the main stand pipe along with built in shut-off system to contain it and make it suitable for buried underground installation, without the need of any chambers and sectioning devices therefore reducing installation costs. Saturno AS releases air pockets from pressurized pipelines, admits large volume of air in the event of pipe draining/burst, to prevent vacuum and negative pressure conditions, and allows the controlled air discharge to avoid water hammer events. Maintenance can be carried out from the top even when the system is under pressure, thanks to the built in isolating device, and a drain on the bottom of the pipe will prevent accumulation of water during operation.

Certifications

Quality e certifications

Quality in its entirety is now an essential requirement for all businesses that aim at gaining and maintaining their position in today's market.

For this reason we have always had the objective of guaranteeing a product managing cycle which, developing a synergy between the various sectors of the company ensures:

  • Quick and precise information.
  • Evaluation of data received and immediate responses.
  • Rigorous control of incoming and outgoing products.

The production cycle, targets a constant improvement of our products, aims at complete customer satisfaction ensures predetermined margins of tolerance establishing production standards so as to guarantee that the semi-finished products reach the next production stage with the required specifications.

All our valves are made of ductile cast iron GJS 450-10 and in absolute compliance with Italian and European standards and are designed to work at a pressure of 25-40 bars. The work is carried out only by means of numerically controlled lathes, mills, horizontal machining units and subsequently examined step-by-step following strict procedures. Internal components of our valves are largely made of stainless steel or other high resistant materials for the maximum prevention of cavitation effects and corrosion.

Painting, pre-treated by sand-blasting grade SA 2,5, is carried out inside a fluidized bed containing epoxy powder, which guarantees maximum surface protection.

All our products are tested under water pressure and certified.
