Bermad IR-450 Series Metal Hydraulically Operated Level Control Valve with Modulating Horizontal Float

The Bermad IR-450-60-R is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm-actuated level control valve designed to maintain a constant water level in reservoirs, tanks, or storage basins—regardless of varying system demand. Controlled by a modulating horizontal float, the valve opens or closes in response to the water level, ensuring precise and reliable reservoir filling.

Built with Bermad’s advanced hydro-efficient globe design, the IR-450-60-R offers high flow capacity through an unobstructed flow path, while its fully supported diaphragm ensures stability and long service life, even under low pressure conditions. Installed externally, the valve and float remain accessible for easy maintenance and adjustment, making it ideal for locations without power supply or in systems requiring low wear and long-term reliability.

APPLICATIONS
