VAG/GA Industries Figure 992-D Vacuum Breaking and Air Release Valves are typically installed at locations along the pipeline where column separations are predicted to occur. They consist of a Figure 990-D Vacuum Breaking Valve and a Figure 920 Air Release Valve, factory assembled and tested as a unit.
The Figure 990-D’s large orifice opens when the system pressure falls approximately 0.25 PSI below atmospheric. It rapidly admits air to limit the negative pressure. The large orifice closes when the pipeline pressure recovers above the opening pressure. Air that was drawn into the pipeline is then slowly released through the Figure 920s’ small orifice as the system re-pressurizes, minimizing the consequences of column separation.
