DESCRIPTION

A ball float valve is a type of valve used to control the flow of liquids, typically water, in plumbing systems. It consists of a hollow sphere (usually made of plastic or metal) known as a float, attached to a lever arm or rod. The ball float valve operates based on the principle that the buoyancy force exerted on the float changes with the liquid level. This change in force is used to control the valve's opening and closing.

APPLICATIONS

Ball float valves are commonly used in various applications, such as toilet tanks, water storage tanks, evaporative coolers, and other systems that require automatic control of liquid levels. They are relatively simple and reliable devices that help maintain the desired liquid level in a container or system.
