The Akron Brass Revolution™ Intake Valve with 30° Swivel Inlet is engineered to maximize pump panel space while delivering reliable, high-flow water control for demanding firefighting operations. Its compact design and patent-pending integrated Pyrolite handwheel minimize interference with surrounding equipment, creating a safer and more efficient operating environment for apparatus operators.
Designed for flows up to 2,000 GPM, the Revolution™ Intake Valve utilizes a durable ball sector design for smooth, dependable operation. Critical waterway components are constructed from non-corrosive stainless steel, while the aluminum body features a durable powder-coated finish for long-term durability. The valve includes a field-adjustable pressure relief valve, quick-turn bleeder valve, built-in position indicator, and a swiveling 30° inlet elbow with locking pin, making it an ideal solution for modern fire apparatus intake applications.
