Replacement Part for Hansen Maxflo Valve, Leveller Valve & Rapidflo Valve.
25mm Female BSPT Diaphragm Valve Body.
Hansen Maxflo Valve will operate from .2 to 12 Bar (2.9 to 174 psi) at 20 degrees C.
Maximum Working Pressure; 12 Bar (174 psi) at 20 degrees C.
Yes, valve bounce is created from high flows at high pressures, because our Hansen Max-Flo valve delivers higher flows than other valves it will effectively reduce line pressure which in return will reduce the incidences of this problem by also reducing water hammer.
Yes, this is called water hammer, we have designed the Hansen Max-Flo Valve to open and close slower than other valves effectively varying the flows at these times to minimise the chance of water hammer.
Yes, the Hansen Max-Flo Valve can be installed at the top, side or bottom entry as all components come with each valve.
Yes, our range of HiFlo Valves are designed to handle dirty water. The Hansen Leveller Valve which is based on our diaphragm valves it is unique in that it has a pin that cleans the pilot hole in the diaphragm every time it opens and closes. In addition to that the gap between the diaphragm and the valve body when open is a huge 14mm further reducing potential blockages.
Yes, this is called cycling and can drastically reduce the life of your pump. The Hansen Leveller Valve is designed to control your pump safely by eliminating pump cycling and providing an adjustable water differential depth in your tank.
Our patent pending “Self Cleaning Pilot” will increase durability and suitability in dirty water situations.
Yes, you will find the reservoir valve you are using at the moment is only supplying a flow close to your irrigation demand, with the Hansen Leveller Valve the flow delivery will be much higher and will allow your bore pump to run for less time as well as setting a differential in the tank to enable your pump to shut off for sensible periods.
Yes, as long as your pumps are sized correctly to cover your peak demand the Hansen Leveller Valve will help by delivering a much higher flow at much lower pressure e.g. 400kPa (58 psi) = 772 l/min (170 gpm).
Yes, both the Slo-Flo and Rapid-Flo Rain Relief Valves are designed to handle dirty water.
Yes, the Hansen Max-Flo Valve comes with the required components to install in 20mm or 25mm threaded inlets. This of course means you only need to buy one valve for all sized inlets.
The Leveller Valve opens when a pre-defined minimum water level is reached and will fill your entire tank. The Rain Relief Valve will only supplement your tank with either 50mm or 100mm of water, depending on the float orientation.
The Rapid-Flo and Slo-Flo Rain Relief Valves are essentially the same valve. The key difference between them is that the Rapid-Flo valve is capable of functioning at full flow rate whereas the Slo-Flo valve is restricted to 2 l/min to conform to the Sydney Water Guidelines.
The Hansen Max-Flo Valve will operate from 0.2 bar to 12 bar.
No, because the Hansen Super-Flo valve is more efficient than what you are used to. The reduced operating pressure required will equate to higher flows at lower pressures at your pump which in turn will reduce pumping time and cost.
