Kerick Valve

As Is

This Kerick VTI3222INIV01 vertical tank is made of BPA-free copolyester plastic for potable water service and is intended as a direct replacement for use in ice makers. The valve has a 0.062" orifice and its estimated rate of flow is 0.34 gallons per minute (gpm) at 40 pounds per square inch (psi) and 0.46 gpm at 60 psi. The valve inlet has 1/4" NPT male threads and includes a compression fitting for use with tubing. This unit complies with the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) 169 and 61 standards for food and water equipment. The tank is made from BPA (bisphenol-A )-free copolyester, the valve is made of NSF-approved PVC (polyvinyl chloride), its replaceable seals are made of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) for durability and chemical resistance, and its float is made from HDPE (high density polyethylene) for non-absorption. The vertical tank and valve unit is 4" high, 2.5" wide, and 6" deep.SpecificationsFood equipment standardNSF 169Drinking water equipment standardNSF 61Dimensions4 x 2.5 x 6" (H x W x D) H is height, the vertical distance from the lowest to highest point; W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the horizontal distance from front to back.Float valves use a rod and float ball attached to a valve shutoff lever to control flow in or out of a tank. The float ball rises or falls with the level of liquid in the tank, changing the angle of the valve shutoff lever. When the angle of the valve lever changes sufficiently, the valve opens or closes. Float valves are rated according to the volume of liquid that can flow through them at a particular pressure to ensure the tank can be refilled as quickly as it is emptied. The material that a float valve is constructed from must be suitable for the liquid in which it operates, which may be corrosive or at an extreme temperature. Float valves are used to automatically regulate the level of liquid within tanks in a variety of applications, such as fountains, livestock water tanks, cooling towers, and chemical manufacturing plants.Kerick Valve manufactures fluid level control valves for industrial applications. The company, founded in 1994, is headquartered in Jacksonville, FL.
