SPEAKMAN FPV Freeze Protection Valve 1/2 Inch Npt Automatic

Speakman FPV freeze protection valve is designed to prevent the equipment from freezing by maintaining water temperature above freezing conditions.

Features:

• This valve gets activated as the water temperature falls below 39 degrees F and drains or bleeds water to prevent damage.
• It also acts as a good insulator, thereby reducing further heat loss to the cold outside air.
• This automatic freeze protection valve is ergonomically designed to reduce human error by eliminating manual operation while keeping valuable equipment safe.
• It allows a full opening and closing at 35 and 45 degrees Fahrenheit, respectively.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. Is the product corrosion-resistant?

A. Yes, the valve is made of brass and has galvanised steel finish to offer excellent corrosion resistance, durability and toughness. The use of brass makes it compatible for use in natural gas and potable water applications.

Q. What is the difference between FPV and SPV models?

A. SPV (scald protection valve) is ideal for preventing the equipment from scalding water by activating the valve when the water rises above 98 degrees F. The FPV (freeze protection valve) prevents the formation of ice that can clog lines, restrict flow and cause pressure build-up, or crack pipes, valves or damage equipment.
