Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| DG10 pressure range | 0.1-10 bar, high-strength composite body, patented rolling-seal mechanism | Netafim Mining — Heap Leaching Products Catalog |
| D40 pressure range | 0.2-16 bar, combination air release + air/vacuum valve, same rolling-seal technology as DG10 | Netafim Mining — Heap Leaching Products Catalog |
| D-series shared materials | Reinforced nylon, polypropylene, PVDF, 316 stainless steel, super duplex, and Hastelloy springs | Netafim Mining — Heap Leaching Products Catalog |
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.
