Angular Float Valve Fig. 77

Our angle float valve is particularly suitable for filling with water and other neutral liquids at a maximum temperature of 80°C and a maximum working pressure of 16 bar. It is installed at the top of a tank or reservoir to automatically control the filling rate and gently shut off the flow when a predetermined level is reached. It consists essentially of two parts: the valve body and the float. The float shuts off the flow of fluid when it reaches the desired level. It is a simple mechanical liquid-level controller. The float detects changes in the height of the liquid’s free surface and opens or closes the valve. It features a flange for attaching downspouts; the operating lever is long, allowing for slow and smooth closing; it is easy to install and requires minimal maintenance (the cylinder and piston seals are easily replaceable); it has low pressure drop; the arms are height-adjustable; and it provides an airtight seal. It is important that the fluids are clean and to know the valve’s flow rate in order to calculate the fill time. For monitoring closure levels in reservoirs for water distribution networks, fire protection, and irrigation.
