Description
The Armstrong International D41790 is an AV-13 series brass automatic air vent designed to eliminate trapped air from hydronic heating and cooling systems. With a 1/2″ Female NPT inlet and a 3/4″ Male NPT connection, this vent integrates easily into a wide range of piping configurations. Constructed from durable brass, the AV-13 is built to withstand demanding system conditions and is pressure-rated to 150 PSI, making it suitable for both residential and light commercial hydronic applications.
Automatic air vents like the AV-13 are essential for maintaining system efficiency — trapped air reduces heat transfer, causes noise, and can lead to pump cavitation. The Armstrong D41790 continuously purges air from the system without manual intervention, helping to keep hydronic circuits running at peak performance.
