Mixing Valves
Mixing valves are designed for adjusting the water temperature coming out of the water heater, by automatically mixing the correct amount of cold water, to maintain safe and optimal outlet conditions. Raptor Supplies offers a wide range of these valves from brands like Acorn, Cash Acme, Bradley, Leonard Valve, Powers, Speakman, Taco, Watts, Wilkins and Guardian Equipment. Watts thermostatic mixing valves are capable of protecting the plumbing assembly from thermal shocks, scalding and contamination caused by untempered and unmonitored water supply. These units feature a temperature locking mechanism preventing unauthorised altering of the set temperature settings and a filter screen for keeping the particulates away from the valve. They are available in solder, compression, threaded, quick-connect and solvent weld outlet fitting options to facilitate easy installation and maintenance. Leonard Valve mixing valves are bronze constructed devices with locking temperature regulators, set at a maximum of 85 degrees F, for preventing accidental setting changes. These valves are integrated with a special internal cold water bypass facility capable of handling flow rates and pressures up to 20 GPM and 30 PSI, respectively in the case of a hot water supply failure. They are available in a wide range of faucet sizes ranging up to 2 Inches on Raptor Supplies.
