Float Valve

Float valves are a type of valve that are classified under the supply class Valves, Nonpowered in the supply group Valves.

Float valves are designed to control the level of liquid in a tank or reservoir. They consist of a valve mechanism connected to a float that rises and falls with the liquid level. When the liquid level drops below a certain point, the float valve opens to allow more liquid to enter the tank. As the liquid level rises, the float also rises, causing the valve to close and prevent further liquid from entering.

Float valves are commonly used in applications such as water tanks, cooling towers, and irrigation systems. They are often used to maintain a desired level of liquid, prevent overflow or overfilling, and ensure a consistent supply of liquid.

These valves are typically made of durable materials such as brass, stainless steel, or plastic to withstand the corrosive effects of the liquid being controlled. They are available in various sizes and configurations to suit different applications.

Overall, float valves are essential components in many systems where precise liquid level control is required.
