FM350 Filtamate® - Pressure Limiting Valve 1/2" in out

High pressure systems to protect downstream components e.g. water filters, drink dispensers, ice makers, coffee machines and reverse osmosis machines. Mobile homes and caravans where a connection is available to mains water.

Precision machined from high quality NZ brass

Integral dual check valves help prevent backflow
Integral line strainer protects device and eliminates need for additional strainer to be fitted upstream.
Filtamate resists water hammer and limits water pressure to filters thus avoiding costly water damage.
