This valve automatically releases trapped air during system startup and admits air to prevent vacuum formation during line draining or sudden pressure drops. It is a critical component in irrigation, water supply, and fluid conveyance systems where proper air management is essential to maintaining flow efficiency and preventing pipe collapse or water hammer. Licensed plumbers and irrigation system technicians are the primary installers of this valve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe WATERMAN 4801000 suits residential and commercial pipeline applications where air and vacuum relief is required at high points in the system. The AV-150 designation indicates its classification as a combination air\/vacuum relief device, making it appropriate for water mains, irrigation headers, and pressurized supply lines. It is installed at system high points where air naturally collects and where vacuum conditions are most likely to develop during system shutdown or line breaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-inch port size accommodates standard pipeline connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCombination air release and vacuum relief function in a single valve body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic operation requires no manual intervention during system start or shutdown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAV-150 series design suited for pressurized water distribution and irrigation systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact form factor allows installation at pipe high points without extensive clearance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation air\/vacuum relief valve for 2-inch pressurized water supply, irrigation, and fluid conveyance pipeline systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified irrigation technician in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Depressurize and isolate the pipeline completely before installing or servicing this valve. Mount the valve at the highest point of the pipeline run to ensure effective air and vacuum relief. Do not install in a horizontal orientation unless the manufacturer documentation explicitly permits it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eValve Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Air\/Vacuum Relief\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: AV-150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WATERMAN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4801000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WATERMAN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51396246929714,"sku":"4801000","price":69.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312833926.jpg?v=1782828178","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/waterman-4801000-air-vacuum-relief-valve-2-inches","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
