LF25AUB-Z3 Water Pressure Reducing Valve NPT Female Union x NPT Female, Polymer Seat, 1/2 Inch

LEAD-FREE WATER PRESSURE REDUCTION: The 1/2' Lead-Free Water Pressure Reducing Valve lowers incoming water pressure to safeguard plumbing systems and decrease water usage in commercial, industrial, and residential applications. This assembly contains a removable integral stainless steel strainer, replaceable seat module, thermal expansion bypass, high-temperature diaphragm, and a sealed spring case with stainless steel cage screws for waterwork pit installations. EASY INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE: Featuring versatile end connection options like PEX, CPVC, and Quick-Connect, this lead-free water pressure reducing valve is engineered for simple installation with convenient handling and in-line serviceability, including an NPT female union inlet by NPT female outlet that eases the installation process. THERMAL EXPANSION PROTECTION: The valve incorporates a bypass feature that efficiently manages thermal expansion pressure, allowing water to flow back through the valve into the main when pressures - resulting from thermal expansion on the outlet side of the valve - surpass the pressure in the main supply. It operates within a temperature range of 33° F (0.5° C) to 180° F (82° C). VERSATILE PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT: This valve is appropriate for pressures up to 300 psi (20.7 bar) and provides an adjustable pressure range from 25 to 75 psi (172 to 517 k Pa), with a standard setting of 50 psi (345 k Pa)
