Kirloskar Brothers Limited (KBL), a global fluid management company launched its innovative product – tamper proof kinetic air valve on at its state-of-the-art valve manufacturing facility at Kondhapuri near Pune.
Theft of water by tampering the supply line valves or by any other means results in huge water wastage and imposes a huge cost on water authorities and customers. Tamper proof kinetic air valve launched by KBL is likely to bring a positive change in the water management sector by eliminating the said problems.
Tamper Proof Kinetic Air Valve suitable for water, sewage and effluent application, has a specially designed cowl that prevents unauthorised access to the large orifice ball. The use of non-clogging and self sealing technology in the valve ensures trouble free operation and enhanced life. The pay-back period of the valve against procurement cost is highly attractive. To cater to the specific requirement, KBL can custom-make these aesthetically designed valves in various pressure ratings and wide range of material of construction.

Speaking on the occasion, PB Tupe, Additional City Engineer – Pimpri Chinchwad Municipal Corporation said, “KBL is the leader in fluid management.
