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 pres­sure 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 suit­able 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.

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
3
a
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.
High temperature-resisting diaphragm.
Requirements of various pressure conditions can be quickly met by interchanging the various sizes of diaphragm cham­bers - 6", 8", 10" (150, 178, 200mm) as well as by interchanging spring.
Stainless steel stem.
Replaceable stainless steel seat.
Materials
Watts product specifications in U.S. customary units and metric are approximate and are provided for reference only. For precise measurements, please contact Watts Technical Service. Watts reserves the right to change or modify product design, construction, specifications, or materials with­out prior notice and without incurring any obligation to make such changes and modifications on Watts products previously or subsequently sold.
Diaphragm chamber is easily changed by the removal of two cap screws.
Tapping provided in low pressure side of body for 4" valve to permit convenient, economical attachment of equalizer line.
