Watts 0009162 Valve
The Watts 0009162 1" LF U5B-LP-Z3 is a high-performance lead free water pressure reducing valve engineered specifically for low-pressure commercial and industrial applications. This 1 inch water pressure regulator features a durable lead free cast copper silicon alloy body and is factory-set at 30 psi, with an adjustable reduced pressure range of 10-35 psi. For technicians, the LFU5B-Z3 series simplifies maintenance with a fully serviceable in line design and a replaceable seat module. The integrated thermal expansion bypass effectively manages pressure spikes in closed systems, protecting downstream components from damage. Designed with an NPT threaded female union inlet and an NPT female outlet, this valve ensures a secure, leak-free connection. The inclusion of an integral stainless steel strainer prevents debris from fouling the seat, maintaining consistent HVAC pressure regulation and system efficiency even in demanding environments.
Key Benefits- Adjustable Low Pressure Range: Provides precise control between 10 to 35 psi, ideal for specialized sensitive equipment.
- Lead Free Construction: Complies with all safe drinking water act requirements for potable and non-potable delivery.
- Simplified Field Service: The sealed spring cage and modular internals allow for full restoration without removing the valve body from the piping.
- Thermal Expansion Management: Built-in bypass feature protects the system from excessive pressure caused by water heating.
- Debris Protection: Removable stainless steel strainer captures sediment to prolong the life of the internal disc and seat.
What is the maximum incoming pressure for the Watts 0009162?
This valve is rated for a maximum supply pressure of 300 psi (20.7 bar), making it suitable for high-pressure mains feeding into low-pressure zones.
Can this valve be installed in any orientation?
Yes, the LFU5B-LP-Z3 can be installed horizontally or vertically, though horizontal installation is preferred for easier access to the strainer and spring cage during maintenance.
Is this model compatible with hot water systems?
The valve is equipped with a high-temperature resistant reinforced diaphragm and is rated for temperatures from 33°F to 160°F (0.5°C to 71°C).
