RF Valves RGX Air Release Valve

RGX Air Release Valves are Vent-O-Mat air release and vacuum break valves designed for sewage, slurry, effluent, and water pipeline applications where controlled air management and surge protection are critical.

The RGX series supports high-capacity air discharge during pipeline filling, high-volume air intake during draining or column separation, and controlled pressurized air release once the pipeline is fully charged.

Process Controls Corporation - RGX Air Release Valve

Its anti-shock and anti-surge design helps reduce the risk of pipeline bursts during pump trip events or rapid filling conditions.

Available in multiple configurations, RGX valves are suited for systems that require vacuum break protection, venting, or multi-function air release performance.

They are commonly applied in municipal, mining, chemical, power, and desalination environments where pipeline protection, reliability, and long-term service life are important.
