The Valves
The Range of delayed action Float Valves are designed to provide an accurate and efficient method of controlling the level of stored cold water in tanks with or without raised valve chambers.
All types of valve are constructed to operate over a long period maintenance-free. The delayed action results in full flow when demanded and positive shut-off when the desired water level is reached. This positive action is particularly beneficial for pumped systems and water treatment plants, as it minimises the time the pump runs against semi-closed valve head which is inefficient and wastes energy.
AYLESBURY 'K' TYPE
The weighted key-shaped float can be accurately
set in a number of positions on the float arm
|
|
AYLESBURY 'KB' TYPE
Offers almost infinitely variable opening
and closing water level settings
|
|
AYLESBURY 'KAX' TYPE
Identical in operation to the 'K' Type, the Aylesbury
'KAX' Type is supplied with a longer float arm
|
|
AYLESBURY 'KP' TYPE
The Aylesbury valve offers almost infinitely variable independent
opening and closing water level settings.
The unique KP Twin Float Valve Kit specifically designed for twin tank/partitioned tanks. It uses KB delayed action pilot valve in each tank or division. As the water level drops which ever pilot valve opens first it actuates the main control valve filling both side simultaneously, whilst still giving the option of closing one tank or division and leaving the other side in service This is the only system on the market to achieve this.
