UAE suppliers provide a wide range of valves ranging from balancing valves, such as manual, automatic, and pressure independent control valves (PICV). These balancing valves helps in optimizing fluid flow in HVAC and hydronic systems. These parts are available in bronze, cast iron, and stainless steel per DIN/EN/ASTM standards. They are crucial for achieving hydronic balancing and improving energy efficiency in the region's buildings and constructions. Other add on services include HVAC design support, system commissioning, on-site flow measurement, and supplying accessories for various projects across Dubai, Sharjah, and Abu Dhabi.
Typical UAE Price Range (AED):
• Manual Balancing Valve (DN15-DN50): 80 – 450 /pc
• Automatic Dynamic Balancing Valve: 250 – 900 /pc
• Pressure Independent Control Valve (PICV): 350 – 1,200 /pc
• Lockshield Valve: 50 – 300 /pc.
Note: Pricing varies by valve type, size (DN), material (bronze/GG/SS), pressure rating (PN16/PN25), connection type, and order volume.
Backflow preventer valve is an essential tool for preventing backflow and preventing contamination of the potable water supply. It prevents water from flowing in the opposite direction due to backpressure or backsiphonage.
Common Technical Specifications for UAE Market:
A backflow preventer is a mechanical valve to stop tainted water from reversing back into the clean drinking water supply. It permits water to flow only in one direction. To protect public health from cross-connections, municipalities such as DEWA and ADDC have made it legally mandatory for commercial buildings, industrial facilities, irrigation systems, and fire sprinkler systems.
Although they both regulate flow direction, a check valve is a one-piece valve that stops reverse flow in a pipeline. A backflow preventer is a more complicated assembly that is made and approved especially for the safety of potable water. It frequently has several separate check valves, test cocks, and shut-off valves. According to most plumbing standards, a check valve cannot lawfully be used in place of a backflow preventer.
Backflow prevention devices in the UAE are required to undergo an annual test by a licensed technician, per regulations such as DEWA and ADDC. To retain certification and provide ongoing protection, routine maintenance entails checking for leaks, making sure all shut-off valves function properly, and fixing or replacing worn internal parts like check valves and relief valves.
It ought to be placed where there is a chance of contaminating the public water supply, which is at the point of connection following the water meter. Buildings' main water intake line, branch lines for fire sprinkler systems, boiler feed lines, irrigation systems, and industrial process water lines are examples of common installation locations. Installation needs to be above ground and in a place that is easily accessible for maintenance and testing.
