A Compounding Air Release Valve (CARV) is an essential component in pipeline systems, designed to automatically release accumulated air or gases while preventing excessive air intake during vacuum conditions. This dual-function valve ensures efficient and safe operation of pressurized pipelines by mitigating air-related issues such as vapor lock, pressure surges, and corrosion.
