Float valve, DN 17, float ball
Servo-controlled valve nominal diameter DN 17, which closes by means of buoyancy of a floater to control level in tanks.
If liquid is drained from the tank, the float valve refills automatically and closes when the maximum level has been reached.
While water level and floater rises, the flow into the tank is throttled proportional to the levers position.
An overflow of small tanks will be prevented during the initial filling.
Valves of this design are single chamber straight valves with a glass fibre reinforced polyamid elbow nozzle as outlet.
