Val-Matic 48R02-2HT-C6B6Y 2 in FNPT Cast Iron Wastewater Air Release Valve

The Val-Matic 48R02-2HT-C6B6Y is a new, 2-inch combination air release / air vacuum valve from Val-Matic's Series 48R "Ener•G" wastewater air release line, manufactured in Elmhurst, IL and rated CWP 150 PSI as confirmed by the body label. The part number decodes as follows: 48R = Series 48 Rapid-Acting Combination Air Valve (wastewater rated), 02 = 2-inch nominal pipe size, 2HT = two-inch NPT threaded inlet/outlet connection with high-temperature seat trim, C6 = cast iron body (ASTM A126 Class B), B6 = bolted cover configuration with stainless steel hardware, Y = epoxy-coated exterior finish. The valve automatically releases large volumes of air during pipeline filling (air/vacuum function) and continuously vents small pockets of entrained air under pressure (air release function), making it a true combination device suitable for wastewater force mains, lift station discharge lines, and reclaimed water pipelines. The cast iron body and bolted flanged cover are secured with stainless steel hex-head cap screws as visible in the photos; the red plug cap on the inlet connection confirms the valve ships new and unused. Internal float mechanism and seat trim are rated for raw wastewater service per Val-Matic's Series 48R design standard.
