Additional Details

The Zurn Wilkins Model ZW209 is a 2 1/2 inch pilot-operated pressure reducing valve designed for use in fire suppression systems. It effectively reduces high inlet pressures to maintain safe and stable outlet pressures, crucial for system performance.

The valve's pilot assembly reacts to downstream pressure changes, modulating the main valve to ensure a constant set pressure. Once the desired pressure is reached, the valve automatically seals shut, preventing downstream damage and ensuring reliable operation. Pressure regulation is independent of flow rate, minimizing pressure loss through the valve.

Construction & Features

  • Features a globe-style body with 2 1/2 inch IPS grooved end connections.
  • The valve body and bonnet are constructed from Ductile Iron ASTM A536, providing robust durability.
  • Internal and external ferrous surfaces are coated with a high-quality fusion epoxy coating for superior corrosion protection.
  • Equipped with isolation valves and pressure gauges as standard, facilitating quick and easy maintenance and repair.
  • The pilot control is specifically configured with a reverse pilot (RV) option and a spring range adjustable from 50-165 PSI.
  • Meets NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 standards for lead content, ensuring it is Lead Free.

Caution: For 6 inch and larger valves in this series, horizontal installation with the valve cover up is recommended to properly bleed air and perform maintenance.
