EDSON

Edson is a manufacturer of fluid-handling components, primarily known for its foot valves and suction strainers used in marine, industrial, and commercial pumping applications. The company produces bronze-bodied inline foot valves with swing-check mechanisms and full-flow designs, available in pipe sizes from 1 1/2 to 2 inches with FNPT connections. These valves are rated for a maximum working pressure of 20 psi at 73°F, making them suitable for low-pressure suction lines in bilge, sump, and wash-down systems. Edson also offers round suction strainers with bronze bodies and side-mounted perforations, available in diameters of 4 and 6.6 inches, also with FNPT connections. The product line emphasizes corrosion resistance and durability in wet environments, with Viton seals specified on certain models. 3G Electric stocks multiple SKUs of Edson floor-mount foot valves and suction strainers, providing procurement access to these specialized components for plant engineers and maintenance managers who require reliable suction-side filtration and check-valve functionality. The bronze construction offers resistance to saltwater and other corrosive fluids, while the swing-check design minimizes flow restriction. Edson components are typically applied in boat bilge systems, automotive wash-down sumps, and other low-pressure fluid transfer setups where debris protection and backflow prevention are needed. 3G Electric supports global sourcing of these parts, with logistics coordination for industrial buyers.

Common Applications

  • Marine bilge pumping — Edson foot valves (e.g., SKU 49DR55) used in boat bilge systems for debris protection and backflow prevention.
  • Automotive wash-down sumps — Edson foot valves (e.g., SKU 49DR57) installed in wash-down sump suction lines.
  • Low-pressure fluid transfer — Edson suction strainers (e.g., SKU 49DR51) filtering debris in water or coolant transfer systems.
  • Industrial sump drainage — Edson foot valves (e.g., SKU 49DR54) in sump pump suction lines for floor-mount applications.
  • Marine deck wash systems — Edson suction strainers (e.g., SKU 49DR52) protecting pumps from debris in seawater wash systems.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about EDSON from 3G Electric.

What is the maximum pressure rating for Edson foot valves?

Edson foot valves are rated for a maximum working pressure of 20 psi at 73°F. This rating applies to the bronze-bodied swing-check models with FNPT connections. The valves are designed for low-pressure suction line applications, such as bilge and sump systems, and should not be used in high-pressure or steam service.

What materials are used in Edson suction strainers?

Edson suction strainers feature bronze bodies and strainer elements. The perforations are round and located on the side of the strainer. Bronze provides corrosion resistance in marine and freshwater environments. The strainers are available in 4-inch and 6.6-inch diameters with FNPT female connections.

Are Edson foot valves suitable for saltwater applications?

Yes, Edson foot valves are constructed from bronze, which offers good corrosion resistance in saltwater environments. The valves are commonly used in boat bilge systems and other marine applications. However, the maximum pressure rating of 20 psi at 73°F should be observed, and the valves are not intended for high-pressure or continuous-duty industrial pumping.

What connection types are available for Edson foot valves and suction strainers?

Edson foot valves and suction strainers are available with FNPT (female national pipe taper) connections. The foot valves come in 1 1/2-inch and 2-inch pipe sizes, while the suction strainers are offered in 4-inch and 6.6-inch diameters. All connections are female NPT, allowing direct threading onto male pipe ends.

Can Edson foot valves be used in automotive wash-down sumps?

Yes, Edson offers specific foot valve models (e.g., SKU 49DR57) designed for automotive wash-down sump applications. These valves feature bronze construction and swing-check mechanisms to prevent backflow while allowing full flow. The 20 psi pressure rating is adequate for typical wash-down pump systems.
