Request Information
Our HAT/FP freeze protection valves prevent water supply lines from freezing during cold weather. Continuously monitoring ambient or water supply line temperature, the valve's actuator senses when temperature falls below the factory-specified set-point and will automatically modulate open to bleed off the cold water. Once warmer water backfills and the temperature in the line rises above 40ºF (4.4ºC), the valve will modulate closed again to conserve water.

Applications

Applications

 N/A These valves prevent freezing of water supply lines to docked naval ships. Installed at the end of each supply line, the mechanical HAT/FP automatically opens when temperature is close to freezing and closes when the danger passes, eliminating water waste and reducing utility costs.

Thousands of our HAT/FP's are installed at Naval bases across the country, saving them tens of thousands of dollars each year on their water bill and energy usage.

Advantages

Advantages

 N/A
  • Automatically protects emergency equipment from freeze damage and malfunctioning
  • Self-operating: requires no external power source
  • Discharges the minimum amount of water required
  • Fast-acting response to falling temperatures
  • Used as primary protection or fail-safe backup

Additional Information

Additional Information

 N/A The HAT/FP or the IC/FP thermostatic freeze protection valve can be installed at the lowest point on the station to monitor either the ambient or water temperature. Once the temperature reaches the valve’s set-point it will open to bleed off the cold water and allow warmer water to backfill to prevent the pipes from freezing.

Exposed water lines on safety shower and eyewash stations are often left unprotected from freezing and overheating conditions. This can cause an extremely high or low temperature at the point of use. Relying on personnel to manually open valves to prevent freeze damage or scalding allows for human error.
