Mini Water Pressure Reducing
Valves**
Sizes: 1⁄8", 1⁄4" & 3⁄4" Male x 3⁄4" Female
(3, 8 & 20 x 20mm) Hose Connection
Series LF560, LFH560 Mini Water Pressure Reducing Valves are
designed to reduce incoming water pressure to a sensible level
to protect plumbing system components and reduce water consumption. This series is ideal where a small economical package is
required such as on special industrial process applications, miscellaneous plumbing applications and OEM equipment. Series LF560
and LFH560 are suitable for water supply pressures up to 300psi
(21 bar). The LF560, LFH560 features Lead Free* construction to
comply with Lead Free* installation requirements.

Specifications
A Mini Water Pressure Reducing Valve shall be installed where
indicated on the plans. Lead Free* Mini Water Pressure Reducing
Valves shall be constructed using Lead Free* materials. Lead
Free valves shall comply with state codes and standards, where
applicable, requiring reduced lead content. Valve shall have a
Lead Free* brass body and stainless steel stem and spring. Valve
shall come standard with a
Series LF560 (threaded), LFH560 (hose connection).
*The wetted surface of this product contacted by consumable
water contains less than 0.25% of lead by weight.
** A water saving test program concluded that reducing the
supply pressure from 80 – 50psi (551 – 346 kPa) resulted in a
water savings of 30%.
