Cla-Val manufactures several different types of level control valves. Non-modulating float valves open fully when the liquid level in a tank reaches a pre-set low point. The opening operation allows for the tank to be refilled to a pre-set high point, at which time the valve closes drip-tight.
Modulating float valves maintain a constant liquid level in a storage tank by compensating for variations in supply or demand and are used to control the flow into or out of a tank by either opening or closing on a rising level.
Cla-Val Altitude Control Valves regulates the high water level in reservoirs without the need for floats or other devices. These non-throttling valves remain fully open until the pre-set shut-off point is reached. Altitude valves can be configured for one-way or two-way flow depending on system requirements and can be furnished with auxiliary controls for multiple functions such as pressure sustaining, pressure reduction, rate-of-flow control, solenoid override or other parameters as needed.
The Cla-Val Model CFC2 Float Control is a float-actuated, multi-port pilot control which provides non-modulating, two-position, on-off operation. It is used primarily to operate remotely located Cla-Val Valves requiring a three-way or four-way pilot valve operation. Designed for use in closed tanks, this control operates on a minimum level change of approximately one inch. A maximum level change of five and one-half inches is needed for full capacity.
