Float Valve Bodies for Chemicals

Round Rotating Plunger

Often found in tanks that are frequently washed down, these float valve bodies are 316 stainless steel, so they resist corroding from harsh cleaners. To create custom float valves, combine these valve bodies with floats and rods. Thread them onto pipe to direct water to a specific location. They’re frequently used to send water to the bottom of a tank to limit splashing and disruptions at the surface level. When the valve opens and closes, the plunger rotates freely. This means the internal seal wears evenly, extending the life of the valve body.

Valve bodies with a Teflon® PTFE seal withstand higher temperatures than those with a Viton® fluoroelastomer seal.

Float Valve Bodies for Drinking Water

90° Elbow

90° Elbow with Flow-Adjustment Lever

Safe for use in drinking water systems, these float valve bodies meet NSF/ANSI 61 standards. Combine them with rods and floats to create custom float valves. They’re made of PVC, so they’re a lightweight alternative to metal valve bodies. With a nonrotating plunger, they maintain a tight seal even in turbulent water, such as in mixing tanks and tanks with boiling water.

Float valve bodies with a flow-adjustment lever have two flow setpoints, so you can adapt the flow rate to match system requirements.
