The Model FP 450-60 Level Control Valve with Modulating Horizontal Float is a hydraulically controlled, diaphragm actuated, control valve that controls reservoir filling to maintain constant water level, regardless of fluctuating demand.
Features:
Line pressure driven – Independent operation
Modulating hydraulic float control – “Always Full” reservoir
Fully supported vulcanized diaphragm – One moving part – Rugged radial seal disk – Protected diaphragm
Balanced rolling-diaphragm – High flow capacity – Very low opening and closing pressure requirements
In-line serviceable – Easy maintenance
Flexible design – Easy addition of features
External installation – Pilot operated
Typical Applications
Large Fire Water Reservoirs Mechanical level control valves present various issues:
Valves are often at inaccessible locations
Float and arm assemblies are heavy and cumbersome
Relatively low maximum pressure
Tendency for mechanical devices to leak
Increased valve corrosion due to humid environment inside the tank
Difficult maintenance
The Model FP 450-60 overcomes these difficulties by applying a float pilot, separated from the the valve itself, which controls a Hydraulic Valve.
Consider replacing the “60” horizontal float assembly with the “67” vertical float assembly for:
Heavy duty service
Easy level setting
Aggressive or corrosive fluids
