CSA BSP Argo 3F RFP Anti-Surge Combination Air Valve
CSA
CSA is an Italian valve manufacturer specialising in pressure control, air management and surge protection for water systems. Established in 1987, the company produces a range of air valves, pressure reducing valves, relief valves and level control valves for water distribution, irrigation and industrial applications. Combining Italian manufacturing with specialist engineering expertise, CSA develops solutions to regulate flow and pressure, manage trapped air and help protect pipelines and equipment from water hammer.
Key Information
The CSA Argo 3F RFP Anti-Surge Combination Air Valve provides automatic air management with added surge protection for water distribution and treated water systems. Its triple-function design discharges air during pipeline filling, releases trapped air during normal operation and admits air during draining to help protect against negative pressure.
The RFP anti-surge mechanism automatically restricts air outflow when the differential pressure rises, slowing the approaching water column and helping to minimise the risk of water hammer. A glass-reinforced polypropylene body provides corrosion resistance, while access from the top allows maintenance without removing the valve from the pipe.
