Watts 1-1/4 LFM115 Lead-Free Pressure Reducing Valve, Ductile Iron, NPT

The Watts 1-1/4 LFM115 is a 1-1/4" lead-free globe-pattern pilot-operated pressure reducing control valve with NPT connections. It features a ductile iron body and a epdm seat. Rated to 600 psi and up to 300°F. This model is certified lead-free for potable-water installations.

This 1 1/4 inch threaded pressure reducing control valve with low flow by-pass is designed to automatically reduce a fluctuating higher upstream pressure to a constant lower downstream pressure regardless of varying flow rates. Flow requirements below the normal range of the main line pressure reducing control valve are handled by a separate, valve mounted, direct acting, low flow by-pass pressure reducing valve.

Features

• Threaded
• 400 psig rated
• Maintains flow rate regardless of pressure
• 20-200 psig

Common Questions

What is the maximum working pressure?

This unit is built as THD (NPT Threaded) and is rated to 600 psi. Threaded and grooved bodies on this platform carry a higher working pressure than 150# flanged bodies, so do not assume a flanged datasheet applies here.

What fluid temperature can the EPDM trim handle?

This valve is built with EPDM elastomers, good to about 300°F. Watts offers the same body with Buna-N (to 160°F), FKM/Viton (to 250°F) or EPDM (to 300°F) — pick the elastomer for your fluid temperature, not the body.

Is this valve UL Listed and FM Approved for fire protection?

Yes — this model carries the UL listing and FM approval required for fire-protection service. Non-listed control valves cannot be substituted on a fire job even when the body and pilot are otherwise identical.
