Multi-Position Automatic Float Valve

The Multi-Position Automatic Float Valve is a compact mechanical water level controller designed for livestock drinking troughs, farm water tanks and water storage systems. The float rises and falls with the water level, automatically opening or closing the inlet without electrical power or electronic sensors.

Its flexible mounting arrangement allows installation from the top, side or bottom of a suitable tank or trough, helping contractors adapt the water supply layout to different pig house, livestock building and agricultural project configurations.

• Automatic mechanical water level control without electricity.
• Suitable for top, side or bottom mounting configurations.
• Compact structure for livestock troughs and confined installation spaces.
• Adjustable float position supports practical water level setting.
• Corrosion-resistant components suited to humid livestock environments.
• Service-friendly construction simplifies routine inspection and cleaning.
• Suitable for integration with commercial pig farm water supply pipelines.
• Multiple connection and configuration options available for project requirements.

Typical configurations may include:

• Corrosion-resistant valve body and threaded water inlet.
• Float and mechanical pivot arm assembly.
• Internal valve cartridge and sealing components.
• Backnut and sealing washer for tank or trough mounting.
• Spring, fasteners and wear-resistant moving components.
• Check-valve or flow-isolation function according to model configuration.
• Extension arm or alternative float size available upon request.

When animals consume water and the trough level drops, the float moves downward and mechanically opens the inlet valve. Fresh water enters the trough until the rising water lifts the float to the preset shut-off position. The valve then closes automatically, maintaining the required water level while reducing unnecessary overflow and manual filling work.

• Remove sediment or mineral deposits when required to maintain reliable operation.
• Protect exposed pipelines and valves against freezing where required by local climate conditions.

The valve can be incorporated into commercial pig farm drinking systems, livestock trough installations, water storage tanks and steel structure livestock buildings. For complete projects, SHEWUYOU can coordinate valve selection with water pipelines, drinking equipment, pen layouts and other livestock equipment according to farm capacity and engineering requirements.

Can the valve be installed in different positions?
Yes. Multi-position configurations can support top, side or bottom mounting depending on the selected model and trough structure.

Does the valve require electricity?
No. Water level regulation is performed mechanically by the float and valve mechanism.

Can the connection size be customized?
Yes. Inlet size and thread standard can be selected according to project requirements.

Is it suitable for commercial pig farms?
Yes. It can be used for automatic water level control in drinking troughs, storage tanks and livestock water distribution systems.

What information is required for quotation?
Please provide the required quantity, inlet size, thread standard, water pressure, installation position and application. Project drawings or trough dimensions are helpful for larger farm projects.
