3/4" (inch) Water Trough Float Ball Valve Plastic float balltap ballcock
Float valve(also balltap or ballcock) is a mechanism or machine for filling water tanks. It consists of a valve connected to a hollow sealed float by means of a lever, mounted near the top of the tank. The float is often ball-shaped, whence the name ballcock. The valve is connected to the incoming water supply, and is opened and closed by the lever which has the float mounted on the end. When the water level rises, the float rises with it; once it rises to a pre-set level, the mechanism forces the lever to close the valve and shut off the water flow. This is an example of negative feedback and of proportional control. A discharge mechanism is activated by means of a rod or chain. As the tank water level drops, the float descends and actuates the fill valve. Water is fed to the tank to replenish its supply, and a smaller flow is directed into the overflow tube to refill the tank. Once the valve closes, the water flow from the fill valve continues until the tank level again reaches the fill line. |

Advantages :
This ball cock adopts the autolock theory to fasten the water flow rate, less control strength need for switching water, its max water pressure can be 1.2Mpa, mainly installed in home use water tank, livestock and cooling tower etc. And we are very pleased to provide samples for customers to test.
Trough Tank Quick Stop Floating Valve are usually used in some big and deep water containers. It can be used in water tower, livestock farm and so on. It has two ways to install: level and vertical, which are also called horizontal type and vertical type. As there are two holes at the head of valve body. you can put the line through different holes to achieve horizontal or vertical installation. And the other end of line tied to the hole of float ball.
Working principle:
1. As the water fill in water tank, the floats rise and up to the settled water level, then the valve will be closed by the line pulling force.
2. As the water level drop, tension will reduces between floats and valve body, then the spring which in the valve body forces the valve open, and the water fill in tank again at this time.
Loose the screw on the arm to adjust the float position and achieve the horizontal and vertical installation.
Each of install method will not affect the performance.
1.If the body and pipe joint leak water, please check water tape is wrapped and the pipe joint is tighted.
2.The Strength should suitable when tight and fix the float valve, too much excessive strength will damage the valve.
3.Please check the water inlet filter regularly and remove the garbage out in time.
4.Please do not use the cleanser which will cause damage when clean the float valve.
