Real Specifications

DG10 pressure range0.1-10 bar, high-strength composite body, patented rolling-seal mechanismnetafim-mining-heap-leaching.md
D40 pressure range0.2-16 bar, combination air release + air/vacuum valve, same rolling-seal technology as DG10netafim-mining-heap-leaching.md
D-series shared materialsReinforced nylon, polypropylene, PVDF, 316 stainless steel, super duplex, and Hastelloy springsnetafim-mining-heap-leaching.md
Install / Failure Note

The rolling-seal mechanism used across the DG10/D40 family is explicitly less sensitive to pressure differential than a direct float seal, per Netafim's own design description — a real durability advantage over simpler float-seal air valves on lines with variable pressure.

This D-series entry is evidenced here through Netafim's mining catalog, but the same rolling-seal air-valve platform is the vendor's core irrigation product — the engineering that keeps a heap-leach air valve from scaling shut is the same mechanism that keeps a field irrigation air valve from fouling on sediment.
