The WVBSS Vacuum Breaker is used on heat exchangers, air
coils, jacketed kettles, pressing machines, boiler feed water tanks,
sparge systems, water lines, or anywhere else an unwanted
vacuum may occur. The WVBSS allows air to enter the steam
or liquid system in order to “break the vacuum” caused by the
condensing of steam or draining of liquid from a system. The
elimination of vacuum is necessary to allow proper drainage
of liquid from process systems.

The Vacuum Breaker functions like a simple check valve.
Outside air is allowed to enter the system through the air
inlet. However, when steam or water try to escape, the
vacuum breaker closes off tightly.
