Cla-Val Waste Cone 3'' X 5''
Cla-Val Waste Cone 3'' X 5'': Safe Evacuation in Fire and Industrial Systems
The Cla-Val Waste Cone is a critical system component designed to safely and controlledly discharge water from fire pump pressure relief valves, particularly in fire protection systems. This specialized waste cone is engineered to withstand high pressure and temperature conditions.
What is a Waste Cone and What Does It Do?
A waste cone is a funnel-shaped piece installed at the outlet of a fire pump pressure relief valve, directing the discharge water into the drain line. Its primary purpose is to create a visible air gap to prevent the discharge water from flowing back into the system (siphoning).
Measurement Meaning (3'' X 5''): These dimensions generally indicate the inlet and outlet diameters of the cone.
NFPA 20 Compliance: Cla-Val Waste Cone is manufactured in accordance with the requirements of NFPA 20, the most basic standard for the installation of fire pumps.
