Product Description

Foot Valve for 1/4" or 3/8" Tubing – Model C-340A

Reliable Suction Control for Chemical Feed Systems

The C-340A Foot Valve is a compact, durable check valve designed for use with 1/4" or 3/8" polyethylene or vinyl tubing in chemical feed systems. Installed at the suction end of a chemical pump’s inlet line, the foot valve prevents loss of prime by maintaining a constant column of chemical solution in the suction line and blocking backflow when the pump is off.

Its weighted design keeps the valve submerged in the chemical tank, while the integrated screen helps filter debris and protect the chemical pump from particulate contamination. Ideal for use in pool and spa automation systems, commercial water treatment, and other chemical metering applications.
