A foot valve is a type of valve installed at the bottom of a pipe or container, with its core function being to ‌prevent backflow‌ of the medium, ensuring one-way flow of liquids or gases in the pipeline. It is a type of check valve and is typically used in critical locations such as pump suction inlets.

‌Key Functions‌

• ‌Prevent Backflow‌: When the pump stops, the foot valve automatically closes to prevent liquid from flowing back, avoiding pump dry running and system pressure loss.

• ‌Filter Impurities‌: Some foot valves come with built-in strainers to block large particles in the liquid, protecting pipes and equipment from clogging or wear.

• ‌Maintain Static Head‌: When installed at the suction end, the foot valve helps maintain system static pressure, reducing start-up time and improving efficiency.

‌Application Scenarios‌

• ‌Pump Systems‌: Prevents liquid backflow when the pump stops, avoiding dry running.

• ‌Automotive Systems‌: Used in fuel, cooling, or brake systems to ensure one-way flow of liquids.

• ‌Chemical/Water Supply & Drainage‌: Suitable for pipelines requiring frequent maintenance or cleaning, preventing medium backflow.
