Description

The Zurn Wilkins 6 inch Model ZW209 is a pilot-operated pressure reducing valve with an angle style body and IPS grooved connections. It effectively reduces high inlet pressures to a stable downstream pressure in fire protection and industrial systems. The valve features a ductile iron body with internal and external epoxy coating for superior corrosion resistance, ensuring longevity. Standard isolation valves and pressure gauges facilitate easy maintenance. Its pilot assembly reacts to downstream pressure changes, maintaining a constant outlet set pressure. Certified to NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 and ANSI/AWWA C530, this Lead Free valve provides reliable performance and precise pressure regulation.

Additional Details

The Zurn Wilkins Model ZW209 is a 6 inch pilot-operated pressure reducing valve with an angle style body and IPS grooved connections, designed to reduce high inlet pressures to a safe and stable outlet pressure in fire protection and industrial applications.

Its reactive pilot assembly ensures constant downstream pressure by modulating the main valve between closed and open positions, preventing downstream damage by sealing shut when the pilot setting is reached.

Features

  • Epoxy coated internally and externally for enhanced corrosion protection.
  • Maintains constant downstream set pressure regardless of flow rate or varying inlet pressures.
  • Comes standard with isolation valves and pressure gauges for simplified maintenance and repair.
  • Features a Wye Type Strainer for system protection.

Installation Note: The recommended installation orientation for ACVs is horizontal, with the valve cover up. 6 inch and larger valves, such as this model, should only be installed horizontally, with the valve cover up, due to the difficulty of properly bleeding air out of the cover and performing maintenance on valves installed in the vertical orientation.
