Description

The Zurn Wilkins Model ZW205 is a 6 inch pilot-operated pressure relief and pressure sustaining valve designed to maintain a predetermined upstream pressure. It automatically modulates to relieve excess pressure when upstream pressure exceeds the set point and sustains pressure when below it. This globe body valve features durable Ductile Iron construction, a stainless steel seat, and Buna-N rubber disc for reliable performance. It includes a pilot assembly with a "Wye" type strainer, isolation valves, inlet pressure gauge, and standard copper tubing with brass fittings. Certified Lead Free to NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 and ANSI/AWWA C530, it ensures safe and compliant operation for critical water control applications. Item number 6-ZW205FPG.
