Foot valves combine check valve and strainer functions in a single unit installed at pump suction lines, maintaining pump prime by preventing backflow while filtering debris from African water wells, surface water intakes, and mining dewatering sumps.
Our foot valve range serves applications critical for centrifugal pump installations in remote locations without reliable priming systems, meeting international standards where applicable while addressing African-specific operational challenges including remote locations, limited maintenance capabilities, and harsh environmental conditions throughout mining, oil & gas, water/wastewater, and industrial process sectors.
Specialty valve applications require detailed understanding of service conditions and operational requirements. Our technical team provides application-specific guidance and product selection support.
