Watts 0555179 Valve

The Watts 0555179 Valve, specifically the Series LF600 Maxi-Flo, is a mission-critical component for plumbing and industrial systems requiring high-reliability backflow prevention. This 1.5 inch silent check valve is engineered with a lead-free cast copper silicon alloy body, ensuring full compliance with stringent lead-free water safety standards. As a veteran in the field, you know the importance of mitigating water hammer; the LF600 utilizes a conical disc and stainless steel spring to provide silent closure and prevent damaging pressure surges. Its PTFE seat and nitrile O-ring ensure a positive seal across a wide temperature range, from -20°F to 100°F at 400 psi WOG. This versatile valve supports both vertical (upward flow) and horizontal installations, offering a low pressure drop comparable to traditional swing checks while maintaining a more compact footprint. With FNPT threaded connections, it drops directly into standard piping configurations for rapid deployment in residential or commercial mechanical rooms.

Key Benefits
  • Eliminates Water Hammer: The silent spring-loaded design prevents pipe bang and system vibration during pump cycling.
  • Enhanced Flow Dynamics: Features a conical lead-free check that provides full fluid flow with minimal resistance.
  • Flexible Mounting: Suitable for multi-positional installation, providing versatility for tight mechanical layouts.
  • Industrial-Grade Materials: Built with a stainless steel guide rod and spring for superior corrosion resistance and longevity.
  • High Pressure Rating: Rated for up to 400 psi (27.6 bar) WOG non-shock and 15 psi (1 bar) WSP at 250°F.
Common Questions

Can this valve be used for steam applications?
Yes, the Watts LF600 is rated for 15 psi WSP (Working Steam Pressure), making it suitable for low-pressure steam utility service.

Is the flow direction reversible?
No, this is a directional check valve. Proper orientation as indicated by the flow arrow on the body is required for the valve to function correctly.

Can I use this for sewage or grinding systems?
No, this Maxi-Flo check valve is designed for clean water and industrial fluid applications; it is not recommended for sewage ejector piping or reciprocating air compressor service.
