Watts 0780036 Copper Float
The Watts 0780036 (Model C10) is a heavy-duty 10-inch copper float designed for high-demand industrial and commercial fluid management. Built to resist the rigors of continuous operation, this industrial float ball features high-grade copper construction with firmly bonded overlapping joints to ensure structural integrity under pressure. It is engineered specifically for use with heavy-duty float valves in applications such as cooling towers, large-scale refrigeration units, livestock watering tanks, and pressure washer makeup water systems. The Watts C10 float supports a maximum working temperature of 200°F, making it suitable for hot water recovery and heat transfer units. It features a standard 3/8-16 female thread connection for secure attachment to float rods. Designed for non-potable water applications, this component provides the buoyancy and corrosion resistance required for reliable liquid level control in demanding environments where plastic alternatives often fail.
Key Benefits- Heavy-Duty Construction: High-grade copper with overlapping joints prevents seam failure in high-turbulence environments.
- High Temperature Rating: Operates reliably in temperatures up to 200°F, ideal for heat transfer and refrigeration cycles.
- Universal 3/8-16 Threading: Ensures broad compatibility with standard industrial float valve stems and assemblies.
- Industrial Buoyancy: The 10-inch diameter provides the necessary displacement for high-capacity flow control valves.
- Corrosion Resistance: Natural copper properties offer longevity in non-potable water and chemical makeup tanks.
Is the Watts 0780036 suitable for drinking water?
No, this specific copper float is intended for non-potable water applications, such as cooling towers and industrial tanks, and is not rated for lead-free potable water systems.
What is the connection size for the C10 float?
This unit uses a 3/8-16 TPI female thread connection, which is standard for most industrial-grade float valve stems.
Can this float be used in high-temperature systems?
Yes, it is rated for a maximum operating temperature of 200°F, making it a staple for steam-adjacent and heat transfer applications.
