Alderdice floating foot valves retain prime in a pump suction line while following the water level in a dam or river. Two floats support the valve through a drop bar and tee, keeping the intake assembly floating as the level changes. The gunmetal bronze valve has a threaded side outlet, allowing a suction pipe fitting to connect without a bend at the valve.
BSP side outlets are available in 32mm, 40mm and 50mm sizes. The non-return valve closes against reverse flow when pumping stops. The floating arrangement supports the intake at the surface rather than fixing it at one level.
Use the size-specific pressure-loss curves when assessing suction performance. The flow charts are a guide only; they do not provide a fixed flow capacity for every pump installation.

Alderdice Gunmetal Bronze Floating Foot Valve Specifications
Alderdice vertical check valves retain prime and prevent reverse flow in pump pipework. The 40mm and 50mm valves provide non-return connections for matching pump suction lines. Their gunmetal bronze construction follows Alderdice’s pump-valve design, with selection based on connection size and the required pumping conditions.

Aluminium Camlock Fittings
Aluminium camlocks are commonly used where a quick, convenient connection and disconnection of piping and hose is required. All of our aluminium camlocks are suitable to a temperature up to 100 degrees celsius. Threads are cut according to the ISO 228 standard all of our camlocks have been produced to Mil Spec A-A 59326. These products conform to ASTM B 26B 26M and are typically used for general use, agriculture and industrial applications. They are also suitable for general air and water applications.
Float-controlled animal drinking bowls keep water available for pets, poultry and stock. The valve refills the bowl as water is used and closes at the set level. The 2.5L bowl is stainless steel; the 4L bowl is nylon with a stainless steel cover. Both have hinged covers for access to the float valve.
The stainless steel bowl accepts a water inlet on either side. The nylon bowl has a left-side inlet and a removable drain plug for cleaning. Check the dimensions and inlet position against the mounting location.
The 25mm Anka vacuum breaker admits air into a pipeline when pressure falls below atmospheric pressure. This helps prevent the pipe from being pulled inward as water drains or a pump stops. Once the pressure balances, the valve closes again. Its glass fibre reinforced nylon body is installed upright so the valve can operate correctly.
Glass fibre reinforced nylon.
Pressure: 0-1600kPa at 20°C.
Install in an upright vertical position and keep the air opening unobstructed.
Connections: 25mm (1") connection.
The Apex VisiBall provides a visible indication of water level in a tank or reservoir without batteries or wiring. An internal float raises and lowers a stainless steel tube, moving the visible ball above the tank as the water level changes.
The adjustable Uni-Ball roof joint lets the tube remain vertical on different tank roof angles. The standard indicator includes a 2m tube, a 150mm bottom float and a 115mm top ball.
A 1m extension is available for a maximum assembled height of 3m and includes a twin-float connector and female socket. The extended setup needs two 150mm bottom floats, so add one more 150mm Apex ball float in black or orange, sold separately.
Fit through a 25mm hole and keep the tube vertical so it can move freely. Use the manufacturer wind limits for the selected tube height.
This Bermad 100 Series 80mm basic hydraulic valve uses water pressure to operate its diaphragm-controlled passage. Applying pressure to the control chamber closes the valve; releasing that pressure allows it to open. The body provides hydraulic on/off control for irrigation headworks and similar water systems, using a control arrangement matched to the application.

Black PVC fire reel hose provides flexible water delivery for fire hose reels and general water-transfer work. The reinforced hose is supplied in 19mm and 25mm bore, cut by the metre or as complete rolls. Select the bore and supplied length to suit the hose run. Steel reels store and rewind the hose, with fully fitted assemblies or reels with fittings for a separately fitted hose and nozzle.
The 19mm (3/4") hose is available per metre and in 20m, 36m, 50m and 100m rolls. The 25mm (1") hose is available per metre and in 20m, 30m and 100m rolls. Per-metre hose and full rolls are supplied as hose, without a reel or nozzle.
The reinforcement supports the hose wall under internal water pressure while retaining flexibility for winding onto a reel. The hose working pressure is 1000kPa (145psi). Flow at the nozzle depends on the hose bore, length and available inlet pressure.
The hose is intended for fire reel use and general water delivery. Its standard reference is AS/NZS1221. Hose bore is the internal diameter used when selecting hose tails and other hose-end connections.
Steel reel assemblies include HRFF19 with 25m of 19mm hose and a nozzle, and HRFF25 with 20m of 25mm hose and a nozzle. The HRSR40-18F and HRSR40-25F reels suit 19mm and 25mm hose respectively and are supplied assembled with fittings, without hose, hose clamps or nozzle. Hand cranks rewind the hose onto the powder coated steel drums.

Brass Y strainers remove larger particles from water before it reaches downstream equipment. A stainless steel screen sits inside the angled branch of the body, allowing the screen to be inspected and cleaned through the cap. Female threaded connections are available in 15mm-50mm sizes, with different screen openings for the smaller and larger sizes.
The 15mm, 20mm and 25mm models use a 350-micron screen; the 32mm, 40mm and 50mm models use a 500-micron screen. A smaller micron value means a smaller screen opening. The strainer is a particle filter rather than a shutoff or non-return valve.
Install with access to the strainer cap and follow the direction of flow marked on the body. Clean the screen as required by the water quality and any increase in pressure loss.
Female threaded connections; maximum pressure 1600kPa.
