Watts Lead Free Thermostatic Mixing Valve 1" Threaded

Series LF1170 Lead Free Hot Water Temperature Control Valves are specifically designed for mixing hot and cold water on hot water supply systems. They can be used for a variety of applications to reduce the temperature of the hot water from the system and are ideal for radiant heat applications. This series features a double throttling design which combines the control of the hot and cold water to provide a sensitive response to changes in water temperature passing through the mixing chamber.

The superior flow characteristics of these valves provide accurate temperature control to the requirements of ASSE 1017 across the rated flow range. As an added feature, the LF1170 series incorporates integral check valves and filter washers in both the hot and cold-water inlets to protect against cross flow. These valves also provide additional safety as they restrict mixed water out to a drip upon loss of cold-water supply to the valve.

LF1170 models can be set to any temperature between 90 degrees F and 160 degrees F with flow rates as low as 0.5 gpm and as high as 23 gpm. Maximum Pressure: 150psi (10 bar). Lead Free cast copper silicon alloy body construction.

Features:

• Integral check valves and filter gaskets in both hot and cold water inlets protect against cross flow
• Double throttling design provides sensitive response to changes in water temperature
• Solid wax hydraulic principle thermostat controls both hot and cold water, and is engineered to ensure dependent mixing of hot and cold fluids
• Flow of mixed water is safely restricted in the event that cold water supply is compromised
