With Bobbing Polypropylene Float

Control water levels in processing tanks and cooling towers.

Use valves with bobbing float in tanks where the float may get jostled. The float moves independently of the rod, so valve operation is not disrupted.

PVC Float Valves

These float valves have a temperature range of 35° to 110° F. Use them to control water levels in processing tanks and cooling towers.

Valves with a discharge outlet release contents into your tank; the outlet is unthreaded.

Polypropylene Float Valves

Able to withstand higher temperatures than PVC float valves, these valves have a temperature range of 35° to 175° F. Use them to control water levels in processing tanks and cooling towers. Valves have an unthreaded discharge outlet, which releases contents into a tank.

Valves with compression inlet connections are for small-scale applications using tubing.

Compact Metal Float Valves

Smaller than other float valves, these are sized for containers with limited space. Use them to control water levels in processing tanks and cooling towers.

Valves with a discharge outlet release contents into your tank; the outlet is unthreaded.

Compact Float Valves with Plastic Reservoir for Food and Beverage

With Top Inlet

With Side Inlet

Commonly used in ice-making machines, these valves have floats that rest inside a clear plastic reservoir. They meet NSF/ANSI 169 standards for food equipment components. Polypropylene plastic floats are FDA compliant for direct food contact. The discharge outlet is unthreaded and releases contents into your tank. The drain holes are located on the bottom for connecting to soft tubing (not included).
