Level Control Valve – Float
Float Level Control Valve
Float level control valves are used in water tanks, reservoirs, Pressure breakers are hydraulic control valves used to control the level of water in structures that store water, such as tanks, etc. In order for the main valve to open and close, there must be a minimum of 7 meters of water pressure in the existing network.
FEATURES
Since the structure of the float level control valve is very simple, its use offers great advantages for the user.
The valve's float assembly is modular. It can be easily mounted to the structure where level control will be performed in the desired format.
The hydraulic hose located between the main valve and the floater assembly is easily mounted to the valve and floater assembly.
Thanks to the ball valve on the float level control valve, it can also be used as an on-off valve.
The valve operates completely hydraulically with line pressure without requiring any extra energy.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Mount the valve according to the arrow indicating the flow direction.
For ease of service and maintenance of the valve, it is recommended to install isolation valves (slide, butterfly or ball valves, etc.) on the upstream side to cut off the water in the line.
In order for the valve to operate efficiently, it is recommended to place a suction cup before the valve.
Mount the float assembly of the float level control valve firmly to the tank. If the float assembly is not stable, the main valve will not work.
After the float assembly is assembled, turn the mini ball valve indicated with number 2 on the main valve to the open position. When the mini ball valve is in the closed position, the main valve will close itself.
Hydraulic control valves are control valves that operate with system pressure. In practice, in systems where the tank inlet pressure is close to zero, the float level control valve should be mechanical, not hydraulic.
To protect the valve from the risk of freezing during the winter months, drain the water in the valve's actuator to the atmosphere.
