Highly versatile float valve, suited to a wide range of agricultural applications in both concrete and thin-walled poly troughs and tanks up to 1,500 litres.
Available as standard BSP making this valve ideally suited to either concrete or poly and thin-walled troughs and tanks.
The lever assembly and pivot pin are manufactured from DZR (dezincification resistant) brass. This means they resist corrosion. This prevents the weakening of the brass leading to premature failure.
Rather than a one-piece lever with a narrow cam this new cam is wider to provide significantly greater strength. It provides greater resistance to damage by stock.
A simple pin and stainless R-Pin hold the lever assembly in place. The pins can be removed without any tools, which makes lever adjustment, installation and maintenance a simple task and saves time and effort.
The valves come standard with a ¾” BSP male inlet and a 1” BSP male inlet. This means one valve suits troughs with ¾” or 1” connections. This means less valves need to be stocked.
Across the range of inlet pressures the valve has a high flow. This means it can fill troughs quickly thus providing sufficient water to meet the demands of the stock.
The outlet cap has moulded, scientifically engineered flow directors. This minimises the rosette effect, which causes unnecessary splashing, and saves water.
The combination of body design, lever length and float size provide high pressure shut-off. With an inlet pressure up to 1200 kPa the valve will not leak. This makes it suited to installations such as at the bottom of hills.
Each lever has a nut fitted to the end. This nut locks the float in place to prevent it from coming undone. This provides peace of mind that the float cannot come loose and precious water be lost.
Maximum shutoff 1,400 kPa
Maximum flow 426 litres/min
Recommended float size 6” (150mm)
