Float valve for open/close control

The on/off valve with float control controls the water flow into a tank. If the level in the tank falls below a certain minimum, the main valve is opened. If the maximum water level in the tank is reached, the main valve is closed. To avoid water hammers, the closing rate can be adjusted via the throttle check valve.

The difference between minimum and maximum water level can be adjusted between 60 and 900 mm via the stops at the float rod.

Minimum inlet pressure: 1 bar
Minimum pressure difference between inlet and outlet pressure: 1 bar

For rating, please specify the following:
- Max. admissible flow
rate
- Inlet pressure (P1 side)
- Holding pressure / back pressure (P2 side)
- Difference between min. and max. water level in the tank

Components:
1: main valve
2: ball valve
3: filter
4: throttle check valve
5: pilot valve
6: float
7: float protection tube (option)
8: position indicator or opening limiter (option)
9: manometer with ball valve

Material: Body parts: GJS-400, Hawle epoxy powder coated
Control line: stainless steel
Diaphragms, gaskets: EPDM acc. to KTW-BWGL for water
Float control valve: brass / bronze / red brass / stainless steel / PVC
Max. operating Pressure: See table
