Overview
The Nol-Tec 24839 BFA piston aeration valve is a precision pneumatic component engineered for industrial bulk material handling systems. This 1-1/4″ NPT valve operates at a maximum pressure of 80 PSI and serves as a bridge breaker, fluidizer, and aerator in gravity-feed storage vessels. Built for reliability in demanding silo, bin, and chute applications, it delivers consistent pulse-driven aeration to prevent material bridging and promote smooth flow.
