Campbell 4104E bronze foot valve

The Campbell 4104E is a lead-free bronze spring foot valve designed for pump suction lines. It features a 1-1/2 inch FNPT connection, stainless steel strainer and inline body design rated for 250 psi water pressure at up to 180 degrees Fahrenheit.

Suited for water systems needing backflow prevention

This valve suits installations that require a low cracking pressure of .5 psi and operate between 35 and 180 degrees Fahrenheit. It is not rated for steam service, so systems using steam should look elsewhere.

Inline FNPT installation

The valve mounts horizontally or vertically using standard FNPT threads on both ends. No special tools are required beyond pipe wrenches, but debris in the line can foul the spring mechanism and reduce sealing performance.

Questions about this item

What size and thread type must my suction pipe have to connect to the 4104E foot valve?

The valve uses a 1-1/2 inch FNPT connection on both ends, so the suction pipe needs matching 1-1/2 inch male NPT threads.

Will the 0.5 psi cracking pressure of the 4104E spring foot valve work with my older shallow-well jet pump?

Yes, the low 0.5 psi cracking pressure allows the spring-loaded poppet to open easily, which is compatible with most shallow-well jet pumps that rely on atmospheric pressure.

How can I confirm the 4104E foot valve is holding prime after installation?

After priming the pump, watch the pressure gauge; if pressure remains steady at or below 250 psi without cycling, the foot valve is sealing correctly.
