The Tank Vent Valve allows air to flow in and out of a tank and equalize with the pressure outside the tank. If air cannot escape quickly enough through the tank while the tank is being filled, pressure will build up inside the tank, potentially causing tank damage, material spillage and ejection. Tank Ventilation Valve provides adequate air outlet, equalizes internal and external pressure and prevents these events.
Application
Tank Ventilation Valve is used in the food, beverage, winemaking, cosmetics and chemical industries.

Application areas of Tank Ventilation valve in various industries:
- Food Industry: In food production facilities, tank vent valves are often used in storage tanks. These tanks are generally used to store liquid and solid food items. Tank ventilation valves regulate air inflow to storage tanks, preventing unwanted pressure increases inside and protecting the quality and safety of foods.
- Beverage Industry: Large tanks are used in beverage production, especially for storing drinking water, soda, juice and other beverages. In these tanks, tank ventilation valves are used to maintain balance between the pressure and environment in the tank.
- Winemaking: In wine production, ventilation of fermentation tanks is important. During the fermentation process, gases produced by the yeasts need to be vented. Therefore, by using tank ventilation valves in fermentation tanks, unwanted pressure accumulation is prevented and the fermentation process is kept under control.
- Cosmetic Industry: Tanks are used in the production of cosmetic products, especially for the storage of liquid products such as lotions, creams and shampoos. Tank ventilation valves are used in these tanks to maintain the quality and stability of the products.
- Chemical Industry: Tank vent valves are commonly used in the production and storage of chemical products. These valves are used to balance pressure changes that may occur during the storage of chemicals and to ensure safety.
Tank vent valve has an important role in these industries to maintain the quality of products, ensure safety and improve operational efficiency.
