Dieses Kerick MA052-Schwimmerventil ist für die Tankmontage mit einem verstellbaren Arm konzipiert und besteht aus PVC mit 18-8-Edelstahlbeschlägen. Das Ventil hat eine Öffnung von 0,093 und seine geschätzte Durchflussrate beträgt 1,3 Gallonen pro Minute (gpm) bei 40 Pfund pro Quadratzoll (psi) und 1,5 gpm bei 60 psi. Der Ventileinlass verfügt über verlängerte 1/2 NPT-Außengewinde mit einer Dichtungsscheibe und Gegenmutter zur Montage durch eine Tankwand, und der Ventilauslass ist frei fließend. Das Ventil besteht aus von der National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) zugelassenem PVC (Polyvinylchlorid), seine austauschbaren Dichtungen bestehen aus TPE (thermoplastisches Elastomer) für Haltbarkeit und chemische Beständigkeit und seine Hardware besteht aus 18-8 Edelstahl für Korrosionsbeständigkeit. Das Ventil verfügt über einen 1,5 Zoll großen und 4 langen Polyethylen-Schwimmer, der am verstellbaren Absperrhebelarm befestigt ist. Dieses Schwimmerventil eignet sich für den Einsatz in einer Vielzahl von Anwendungen, beispielsweise in Springbrunnen und Viehwassertanks. Schwimmerventile verwenden eine Stange und eine Schwimmerkugel, die an einem Ventilabsperrhebel befestigt sind, um den Durchfluss in oder aus einem Tank zu steuern. Die Schwimmerkugel steigt oder fällt mit dem Flüssigkeitsstand im Tank und verändert so den Winkel des Ventilabschalthebels. Wenn sich der Winkel des Ventilhebels ausreichend ändert, öffnet oder schließt das Ventil. Schwimmerventile werden nach dem Flüssigkeitsvolumen dimensioniert, das bei einem bestimmten Druck durch sie fließen kann, um sicherzustellen, dass der Tank genauso schnell wieder gefüllt werden kann, wie er geleert wird. Das Material, aus dem ein Schwimmerventil besteht, muss für die Flüssigkeit, in der es arbeitet, geeignet sein, die korrosiv sein oder eine extreme Temperatur aufweisen kann. Schwimmerventile werden verwendet, um den Flüssigkeitsstand in Tanks in einer Vielzahl von Anwendungen automatisch zu regulieren, beispielsweise in Springbrunnen, Viehwassertanks, Kühltürmen und chemischen Produktionsanlagen. Kerick Valve stellt Regelventile für den Flüssigkeitsstand für industrielle Anwendungen her. Das 1994 gegründete Unternehmen hat seinen Hauptsitz in Jacksonville, Florida. WAS IST IN DER BOX? * MA052 Ventil * PF154 Schwimmerkugel

Works - but for how long
This is the second one I bought. They last for about 6 months. Then they get stuck in the closed position. Going a different route next time.

Size misleading
Too small

Excellent value
This thing is much smaller than I had pictured in my mind. The whole assembly is barely longer than my open hand, so it can fit into tight spaces for a fountain project, or in a sump to maintain water level in a swimming pool. The description here at Amazon.com is nonsense, giving its length as 1 inch: The actual overall length is about 7.5 inches, or 6.5 inches from the mounting flange to the tip of the float, worst case. (See the second vendor-supplied image with the valve photographed against an inch grid for a better understanding of its actual size.) With allowance for installation and adjustment, the valve could be squeezed into a space as small as 8 inches by 2 inches. If installed in a bulkhead, the mounting surface should be flat and no thicker than about 0.25 inch, to allow enough thread protrusion on the outside to attach a threaded pipe fitting. Bulkhead mounting is optional: The male pipe thread on the valve is slightly tapered and can be screwed into any female pipe thread fitting, using Teflon tape on the threads for a watertight seal I gauged the valve orifice with a drill rod at 0.094 inch (3/32 inch) diameter, which accounts for the low flow rate specification. You may not want to fill a swimming pool with it from scratch, but for a typical backyard pool it will allow more than enough water to flow to compensate for evaporation loss. The float arm pivots on a stainless steel cotter pin, so it could easily be disassembled, should the need arise, although at the low cost of the assembly it may be more economical to replace it entirely. Depending on the placement of the valve, the float can be adjusted over a liquid level range of at least 4 inches, possibly as much as 6 inches, by loosening the stainless steel wing nut. One of these valves was successfully used to maintain the water level in a neighbor's swimming pool last summer during a month-long absence. See the customer photo that I posted, showing the minimalist installation with a few pieces of PVC plastic plumbing, an ordinary brick and a garden hose. The only problem I encountered was the hose of the automatic pool sweep once getting hung up on the valve, keeping it open continuously. Because of the restricted flow, no flooding occurred by the time I discovered the problem the next day. If I use it next summer again, I'll mount the valve with some sort of bumper or "fence" around it to keep the pool sweep hose clear, and I'll replace the leaky plastic hose fitting with a sturdier brass fitting.

Works as Intended
This was easy to install and I use it in a backyard water feature. It has a 1/2" intake and seals well when full.

Good valve when working, but 4 of them have failed after about 6 months.
The valves last welll for months, but then the seal, a 1/4" white plastic, nail-shaped part, is prone to internal bubbles full of water, which make the valves suddenly begin to leak badly, wasting water. The seals are difficult to replace down in our swimming pool filler sump, so I replace the whole valve. ...but proper molding by the manufacturer would have been much better. They the seals appear to have been molded with air bubbles, which eventually fill with water under pressure, so the seal grows a flexible lump. ...which you can break with a pin, and water comes out. I would replace with different brand, but all these small valves seem to have the same form. ...appear to be made, maybe, by the same maker.

Worked Perfectly in Fountain Setup. Excellent Sizing Guidance on Product Page
Bought as a replacement valve. As a non-plumber, I greatly appreciated the product description and picture showing the actual size for the item (the thread is about 3/4", but matches the 1/2" NPT standard). Once installed, this new valve immediately stopped the leak that I had with the original valve.

Reliable and cheap.
My supply pipe coming out of the pool, flush on the wall tiles is 1/2". So I buy a 1/2" barb fitting male NPT, 70 cents lowe's. Soften the barb fitting on a trial scrap 1/2" pipe to reduce the barb diameter, or you can sand the barb with drill chuck to the id of barb fitting, around .010 bigger over the 1/2" pipe ID. (Do Not Drill the pool pipe ID to make it bigger, you need a smooth weld when you apply a primer and glue on pipe for water pressure application integrity, wait about 2 hrs. Connect a 1/2" elbow then the kerick valve, so the whole unit is parallel to the wall of the pool for less obstruction. I have it installed for about a 2 weeks now, set about halfway or middle of the mouth of the skimmer, with stable height the whole two weeks. Usually my pool go down 1/2" every 2 days, then I fill it up, about 30-45 minutes with timer, until the middle of mouth of skimmer. The water ball valve on the faucet is set on the low opening to avoid overfill just in case this kerrick valve malfunction. The thread on this is not a standard 1/2" NPT, but that 2 turn is enough, with the help of a provided nut, no leak, so no problem for me.

Does what I wanted it to do.
I wanted a water holding tank and used a 20 gallon Husky Garbage can, mounted this on it and it works just fine. I use the water with a very weak solution of fertilizer to water my 80 plus orchids and other plants. I had to use a couple of sturdy plastic plates to solidify the installation because the weight of the hose would buckle the area where it's mounted. But once that was done, it works just fine. October 28th, 2015 addendum: I think that something like this would also work great for adding water to an aquarium or fish tank. If the water coming out of your tap is chlorinated, letting it sit for a while will help dissipate the chlorine. This could also work as an emergency self filling water tank. Here in Hawaii, we are constantly warned about the possibility of a hurricane. A 33 gallon CLEAN garbage can filled with water would certainly help in an emergency. Just leave the cover on to keep dust and debris from getting into it. Actually, if you think hard enough, there are a lot of possibilities with this.
