Foot Valve

Hansen Foot Valves are used on the end of a suction line to stop fluids in the line emptying when the pump is turned off, thus eliminating the need to prime your pump at start up. The unique design gives you more flow in less time which saves on pumping costs. It has unrestricted full flow and has an efficency in excess of 95% of many other types of Foot Valves. There is no poppet valve to wear or jam and the diaphragm and spring are interchangeable and replaceable with the same size check valve. Blockages are also reduced due to low fluid velocity through the slots.
