Watts 0780011 Valve
The Watts 0780011 (Series Watts 1000) is a 1-inch heavy duty float valve designed for demanding commercial water flow control in HVAC, refrigeration, and industrial cooling towers. Built with a rugged bronze body construction, this mechanical assembly features a 1" female NPT inlet and a male straight-pipe threaded outlet designed for secure locknut mounting against reservoir walls. The machined flange provides necessary structural support, while the no-jam single lever action ensures reliable performance under fluctuating system pressures. For precise level oversight, the valve utilizes serrated arms made of high-tensile manganese bronze, allowing for rapid field adjustments. With a maximum operating pressure of 165 psi and a maximum temperature rating of 180°F, this tank wall-mounted float valve is a standard-issue component for high capacity water flow applications and agricultural irrigation systems, offering a flow rate of 100-150 GPM depending on the PSI setting.
Key Benefits- Enhanced Durability: The heavy duty bronze material resists corrosion and scaling in open-loop cooling systems.
- Field Adjustability: Serrated manganese bronze arms allow technicians to fine-tune water levels without specialty tools.
- Simplified Maintenance: Features replaceable seals and a no-jam lever to reduce downtime during periodic inspections.
- High-Pressure Tolerance: Engineered to handle up to 165 psi, making it suitable for high-rise commercial refrigeration and HVAC units.
