The Watts 0780007, also known as the 750 Series mechanical float valve, is a heavy-duty, high-capacity solution engineered for demanding commercial, industrial, and agricultural fluid control applications. Designed for tank wall mounting, this 3/4-inch valve features a robust bronze body construction and high-tensile manganese bronze arms, ensuring durability in harsh environments like cooling towers, refrigeration systems, and large-scale irrigation setups. The assembly utilizes a no-jam single lever action to provide reliable shut-off and high flow rates, reaching up to 53 GPM depending on line pressure. With a maximum pressure rating of 165 psi and a temperature threshold of 180°F, this heavy-duty float valve is built to handle high-pressure water systems without failing. The 3/4" NPT inlet include a machined flange for superior support against the tank wall, while the outlet features male straight-pipe threads for a secure locknut connection. For precise regulation, the serrated arms allow for quick, tool-free adjustment of the water level. Key Benefits High-Flow Performance: Capable of delivering up to 53 GPM, making it ideal for rapid tank replenishment in HVACR and cooling tower applications. Rugged Bronze Construction: The Watts 750 Series uses a corrosion-resistant bronze body and manganese bronze long/short arms for long-term service life. Precise Level Control: Integrated serrated arms facilitate easy indexed adjustments to ensure accurate water levels and prevent overflow. Field Serviceable: Features replaceable seals and a simple lever mechanism, allowing for straightforward maintenance without pulling the entire assembly. Secure Mounting: The machined flange provides necessary structural support against the tank wall for stable bulkhead installations. Common Questions Is the Watts 0780007 compatible with standard 3/4 inch NPT fittings? Yes, the 0780007 features a 3/4-inch female NPT inlet connection. The outlet is a male straight-pipe thread designed for the included locknut and gasket to ensure a watertight seal against the tank wall. Can this float valve be used in high-temperature water tanks? This valve is rated for a maximum temperature of 180°F (82°C), making it suitable for many industrial hot water and boiler feed applications within that range. What is the maximum pressure 0780007 can handle? The Watts 0780007 is rated for a working pressure up to 165 psi. However, for optimum performance and to prevent water hammer, it is recommended to verify the specific float ball size and buoyancy needed for your specific operating pressure.
