A better way to maintain water level

Valve

The BROWN WEIGHT VALVES are spring loaded, naturally closed valves. When water is needed, the weight pulls down on the arm, providing leverage to open the valve. The solid weight is slightly lighter than water so when the water trough is full the weight floats, closing the valve. See product Pamphlet.

HOW IT WORKS

The WEIGHT VALVE uses a spring loaded, naturally closed water valve.  When the water level goes down the weight on the arm pushes the valve open.  The weight is made of a durable plastic that is slightly less dense than water.  As the trough fills the weight floats up with the water level until the trough is full, allowing the valve to close.

    Please send me some information on pricing. I would be using the valve in cattle waters. Can the valve take apart for cleaning?

    Where can I buy one of these valves?
    I live in Minnesota and would like one I can mount under water and with the frost valve attachment.

    I have cattle and horses so may be interested in several of them.
    Tanks ranging from 100-300 gallons.
