The Lenz Air Bleed Valve is an exclusive design, extremely H

compact and consisting of only two metal parts. There are no
internal seals used. It is a known fact that it is necessary to
eliminate all air from hydraulic lines and equipment in order to
maintain maximum operating efficiency makes this valve an
important and vital component of the hydraulic system. It needs
to be installed at the highest point in the circuit where the air

J
accumulates. It is especially needed when starting up a hydrau-

B
lic system.
It is easily installed. Please make sure when installing Lenz
bleed valve to position the vent opening away from operating
C
personnel. Always open the bleed valve slowly, some weepage
will occur when the valve is opened.
