It reduces inlet pressure of up to 400 psi to an adjustable 25-75 psi downstream, factory set at 60 psi. It features a copper body and a epdm seat. Rated to 400 psi. This model is certified lead-free for potable-water installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 1 inch lead free water pressure reducing valve is designed to reduce incoming water pressure to protect plumbing components and reduce the water consumption for commercial, industrial and residential applications. It features a lead fee cast copper silicon alloy body, thermoplastic seat cartridge, crimp union end connections, reinforced diaphragm, and a bypass valve to control thermal expansion pressure. The reduced pressure rating is set at 60 psi (345 kPa). The maximum working pressure is 400 psi (27.6 bar) and temperature range is 33 to 180 degrees F (0.5 to 82 degrees C).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead free body construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrimp double union end connections for PEX tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBypass valve controls thermal expansion pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSealed spring cage for accessible outdoor or pit installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes: Bypass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it have a built-in bypass for thermal expansion, or do I still need an expansion tank?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e1 LFN45BM1-DU-PEXXPEX includes an integral thermal-expansion bypass. When downstream pressure from a water heater rises above the inlet pressure, the bypass relieves that excess back through the valve toward the supply, which prevents nuisance pressure build-up on a closed system. It is not a substitute for a properly sized thermal expansion tank where your local code requires one - the bypass only relieves back to the street when street pressure is lower, so check the code in your jurisdiction.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat pressure is it set to out of the box?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e1 LFN45BM1-DU-PEXXPEX ships factory set at 60 psi. The adjustable reduced-pressure range is 25 to 75 psi, so you can dial the outlet anywhere in that band on site with the adjusting screw - loosen the locknut, turn in to raise pressure and out to lower it, then retighten and verify with a gauge.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it include a strainer?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eNo - 1 LFN45BM1-DU-PEXXPEX does not have an integral strainer.
