Gator W Series Cast Iron Flanged Basic Hydraulic Valves with Finger Filter PN16

The Gator W Series Cast Iron Flanged Basic Hydraulic Valve with Finger Filter is a rugged, weir-type, single-chamber control valve designed for dependable pressure and flow regulation. Manufactured from heavy-duty cast iron and rated PN16 (1600kPa), it provides smooth hydraulic performance with minimal head loss and quiet operation.

Available in flanged Table D connections from 50mm to 150mm, this valve is supplied with a finger filter for added protection against debris. With a reinforced diaphragm as the only moving part, assisted by a stainless-steel spring, the valve ensures long-lasting reliability with minimal maintenance. Suitable for horizontal, vertical, or angle installations, the Gator W Series can be adapted with pilot, solenoid, or manual control kits for pressure reducing, sustaining, relief, or remote control functions. Ideal for use in irrigation, mining, wastewater, turf and general industrial systems.
