The MegaFlow float operated valve is a market leader in automated water management systems. The MegaFlow float valve is primarily used in animal drinking troughs, underwater mounting helps prevent freezing and damage caused by livestock. With performance up to 65 GPM (3/4" inlet) or up to 90 GPM (1" and 1.25" inlets) at higher inlet pressures, this valve will keep up with your livestock water consumption. In most typical installations, expect an average flow closer to 50 GPM. Easy setup and serviceability are benchmarks in the design of the MegaFlow float valve. Water management on your farm just got easier. MegaFlow valves are configured for below water mounting. The float operates a small pilot valve which in turn operates the main diaphragm valve. MegaFlow float valves are a good choice because of their high flow, compact, robust, and non-corrosive construction. The Jobe Valves MegaFlow float valve is a reliable and versatile tool to help automate your watering system. Applications Maintaining water levels in: • Animal drinking troughs • Water storage tanks Features • High flow — up to 65 GPM (3/4" inlet), up to 90 GPM (1" and 1.25" inlets) at higher inlet pressures; average flow in typical installations runs closer to 50 GPM • Compact robust construction • ¾" - 2½" (20-60mm) water level differential (increases as water pressure increases) • Positive on/off operation • Lock off with cord lock • 5 - 150 PSI (0.3 - 10 bar) pressure rating • Inlet filter • Constructed from corrosion resistant materials • Under water installation helps avoid freezing • Valve is less prone to livestock damage Long Tail VS Short Tail: The Key Difference between long and short tail is the amount of thread available to attach to your plumbing. Another important distinction is that short tail valves do not include a backing nut and seal washer. For more information please review this post. Selecting the right inlet size: Selecting the right size inlet is very important to the performance of your Jobe Valves MegaFlow float valve. The inlet of the float valve should match your supply plumbing. For instance, if your supply plumbing is 3/4" you will get no better performance from a 1" valve. Your flow rate will always be limited by the smallest pipe. Always match your MegaFlow float valve inlet size to your water supply pipe size. If you intend on upgrading your water supply plumbing at some point you can always purchase a different Detach tail. For more information on Jobe Valves Detach tails visit the links below.
