Pulsafeeder J60712 PVDF/PTFE/Ceramic Foot Valve and Strainer
The Pulsafeeder J60712 is a chemical suction foot valve and strainer assembly featuring a PVDF housing, PTFE valve seat and ceramic check ball. It is designed for 3/16-inch inside diameter by 5/16-inch outside diameter suction tubing.
Foot Valve and Strainer Function
Installed at the chemical supply inlet, the foot valve helps resist reverse flow through the suction line when the metering pump is not drawing liquid. Its integrated strainer helps limit the entry of larger debris into the suction tubing and pump liquid end.

PVDF Housing and PTFE Seat
The PVDF/PTFE material combination distinguishes J60712 from foot valves using polypropylene bodies, Viton seats or stainless-steel check balls. Confirm chemical compatibility with all wetted components before installation.
Ceramic Check Ball
The ceramic check ball forms part of the one-way valve mechanism. Deposits or particles on the ball or seat may interfere with proper sealing and affect suction performance.
Small-Diameter Tubing Connection
The 3/16-inch ID x 5/16-inch OD tubing dimensions are important for correct replacement selection. Confirm both measurements and the original pump wet-end configuration before ordering.
Maintenance and Inspection
Inspect the strainer for chemical deposits or debris. Check the valve components for contamination and verify that suction tubing connections remain secure. Follow the pump maintenance instructions before disassembling the suction assembly.
