Watts LFF127W - Manual

Model LF127W and
LFF127W
High Capacity Water Pressure
Reducing Valves
Size: 3" - 4"
Model LF127W and LFF127W High Capacity Water Pressure
Reducing Valves are designed to reduce incoming water pres-
sure to a sensible level to protect plumbing system components
and reduce water consumption. The LF127W and LFF127W are
remote control type regulators ideal for commercial and industrial
applications where a regulator must reach full capacity with a
minor drop in reduced pressure. These models are also suit-
able for applications where close pressure regulation is required
through extensive volume demand. These models are suitable
for water supply pressures up to 175psi (12.1 bar) and may be
adjusted from 25 – 100psi (172 – 690 kPa). All parts are quickly
and easily serviceable.
The LF127W and LFF127W feature Lead Free* construction to
comply with Lead Free* installation requirements.
Features
• Lead Free* body construction
• Replaceable stainless steel seat
• Outstanding maintenance features
• Close control of reduced pressure
• High temperature-resisting diaphragm
• Interchangeable diaphragm chamber
Specifications
A Water Pressure Reducing Valve shall be installed on the water
service pipe near its entrance to the building where supply
main pressure exceeds 60psi (413 kPa) to reduce it to 60psi
(413 kPa) or lower. The water pressure reducing valve shall be
constructed using Lead Free* materials. Lead Free* regulators
shall comply with state codes and standards, where applicable,
requiring reduced lead content. The valve shall be equipped with
a 3 ⁄
8
" tapping to receive equalizer piping and a 3 ⁄
4
" tapping to
receive auxiliary regulator piping for low flow requirements. Valve
shall be a Watts Model LF127W or LFF127W.
* The wetted surface of this product contacted by consumable
water contains less than 0.25% of lead by weight.
