Watts 0298514 Regulator
The Watts 0298514, part of the LF223 Series, is a 3/4-inch high-capacity water pressure reducing valve engineered for demanding commercial, industrial, and institutional applications. Featuring a lead-free cast copper silicon alloy body, this regulator is designed to protect downstream plumbing components from excessive supply pressure while significantly reducing water consumption. The Watts LF223 utilizes an enlarged diaphragm, heavy-duty spring cage, and oversized seat orifice to maintain stable flow rates even during peak demand, making it an essential 3/4 inch water pressure regulator for high-flow installations.
This unit is rated for an adjustable reduced pressure range of 25 to 75 psi, with a factory standard setting of 50 psi. Its serviceable in-line design allows for quick maintenance; the disc holder can be replaced without dismantling the valve body or requiring specialized tools. The high temperature resisting diaphragm ensures reliable performance across a range of 33°F to 160°F, while the sealed spring cage makes it suitable for accessible outdoor pit or waterworks burials. With a maximum working pressure of 300 psi and FNPT threaded connections, the 0298514 provides the durability required by seasoned plumbing and HVACR contractors.
Key Benefits- Superior Flow Capacity: Enlarged internal geometry provides high-volume delivery compared to standard residential regulators.
- Lead-Free Compliance: Constructed from cast copper silicon alloy to meet stringent lead-free installation mandates.
- Field Serviceable: Removable disc holder and top-entry design allow for complete internal maintenance without removing the valve from the piping system.
- Thermal Expansion Protection: Integrated bypass feature manages pressure spikes caused by thermal expansion on the outlet side.
- Rugged Build: Stainless steel seat and corrosion-resistant components ensure longevity in aggressive water conditions.
What is the maximum inlet pressure for the Watts 0298514?
The LF223 series is rated for a maximum incoming water supply pressure of 300 psi (20.7 bar).
Can the LF223 be installed in an underground pit?
Yes, the valve includes a sealed spring cage specifically designed for accessible outdoor waterworks or pit installations.
How do I adjust the pressure on this regulator?
Loosen the locknut on the spring cage and turn the adjusting bolt clockwise to increase downstream pressure or counter-clockwise to decrease it within the 25-75 psi range.
