A foot valve is placed at the bottom of a suction pipe, which could be used to drain a large container of liquid. The foot valve is a one-way valve (check valve) that prevents the liquid from draining back into the container.
A foot valve is simply a check valve. It is common use in a piping system at the pump suction side. By placing it this way when the pump stops operating, fluid won’t flow back into the lower reservoir and the suction side of the pump is always full of liquid.
