Philmac Water Trough Valve

Philmac Water Trough Valve – Compact Float-Controlled Watering Solution

The Philmac Water Trough Valve provides a compact and dependable way to automatically maintain water levels in livestock troughs and tanks. Its float-controlled operation opens the valve as the water level drops and shuts the flow off as the trough refills.

Available in brass and plastic options, the Philmac Water Trough Valve is well suited for rotational grazing systems, pasture watering setups, and livestock operations where dependable automatic water control is essential.

Key Features

Brass & Plastic Options: Available in different construction options to suit your watering-system needs.

Compact Design: Takes up minimal space inside the trough while providing automatic water-level control.

Adjustable Water Level: Float-controlled design allows the system to maintain the desired trough water level.

Ideal for Grazing Systems: Excellent for livestock troughs positioned throughout rotational grazing and pasture watering systems.

Automatic Refilling: Reduces the need to manually monitor and refill livestock water troughs.

Versatile Livestock Use: Suitable for watering systems serving cattle, sheep, goats, and other livestock.

Common Applications

• Rotational grazing water systems

• Cattle watering systems
• Sheep and goat watering systems
• Farm water systems
• Automatic trough filling

How It Works

As livestock drink and the trough water level falls, the float allows the valve to open and replenish the water supply. As the trough fills, the float rises until the valve closes, automatically maintaining the water level without requiring the trough to be manually turned on and off.

Installation Tip

When selecting between the brass and plastic versions, verify the connection size and configuration required for your trough and water system. Water-line size, available pressure, elevation change, and required refill rate should all be considered when designing a livestock watering system.

Use Summary

The Philmac Water Trough Valve is a compact, automatic solution for maintaining water in livestock troughs. With brass and plastic options available, it provides producers with a practical choice for building reliable watering points throughout rotational grazing and pasture systems.
