The valve has lever brackets on both the top\nand bottom of the valve with a different fulcrum position for each bracket,\nwhich allows a \"low\" and \"high\" flow rate at a particular pressure. This valve\nhas a 0.69\" orifice with a \"low\" estimated rate of flow of 42 gallons per\nminute (gpm) at 30 pounds per square inch (psi) and 56 gpm at 60 psi and a\n\"high\" estimated rate of flow of 51 gpm at 30 psi and 69 gpm at 60 psi. The\nvalve inlet and outlet have 1\" NPT male threads and the inlet has extended\nthreads with a sealing washer and jam nut for mounting through a tank wall.\nThe valve is made of National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) approved PVC\n(polyvinyl chloride), its replaceable seals are made of TPE (thermoplastic\nelastomer) for durability and chemical resistance, and its hardware is made of\n18-8 stainless steel for corrosion resistance. The valve uses a 12\" x 1\/4\"\nstainless steel rod and a 6\" or 8\" float ball (sold separately). This float\nvalve is suitable for use in a variety of applications, such as fountains,\nlivestock water tanks, and chemical manufacturing plants.Float valves use a\nrod and float ball attached to a valve shutoff lever to control flow in or out\nof a tank. The float ball rises or falls with the level of liquid in the tank,\nchanging the angle of the valve shutoff lever. When the angle of the valve\nlever changes sufficiently, the valve opens or closes. Float valves are rated\naccording to the volume of liquid that can flow through them at a particular\npressure to ensure the tank can be refilled as quickly as it is emptied. The\nmaterial that a float valve is constructed from must be suitable for the\nliquid in which it operates, which may be corrosive or at an extreme\ntemperature. Float valves are used to automatically regulate the level of\nliquid within tanks in a variety of applications, such as fountains, livestock\nwater tanks, cooling towers, and chemical manufacturing plants.Kerick Valve\nmanufactures fluid level control valves for industrial applications.
