This Valterra 610-8 orange float ball is made of polyethylene for durability and is suitable as a replacement float ball for use with Valterra 600-100 and 600-75 float valves. It has an 8" diameter and is fitted with a 1/4" brass threaded insert for resistance to corrosion. This polyethylene float ball is suitable for a wide variety of tank filling applications in conjunction with an appropriate float valve for automatic shut-off of the filling operation.Float valves use a rod and float ball attached to a valve shutoff lever to control flow in or out of a tank. The float ball rises or falls with the level of liquid in the tank, changing the angle of the valve shutoff lever. When the angle of the valve lever changes sufficiently, the valve opens or closes. Float valves are rated according to the volume of liquid that can flow through them at a particular pressure to ensure the tank can be refilled as quickly as it is emptied. The material that a float valve is constructed from must be suitable for the liquid in which it operates, which may be corrosive or at an extreme temperature. Float valves are used to automatically regulate the level of liquid within tanks in a variety of applications, such as fountains, livestock water tanks, cooling towers, and chemical manufacturing plants.Valterra Products manufactures and distributes valves, hoses, sewer systems, and pool and spa products. The company, founded in 1981, is headquartered in Mission Hills, CA.
