The Zurn Wilkins ACV Series: New Options, Same Commitment to Exceptional Values

Publish Date: Monday, January 18, 2016

ERIE, PA – Zurn Industries, LLC, the manufacturer of the largest breadth of engineered water solutions, announces a new model and design enhancements to its industry-leading, ever growing line of Zurn Wilkins Automatic Control Valves (ACV). This expansion of the Zurn Wilkins ZW200 ACV series remains true to the line’s exceptional values: simplified maintenance and repair, short lead times, ease of retrofit, and lowest total cost of ownership.

With this launch, Zurn announces the Zurn Wilkins ZW221/ZW222 Altitude Valve for water level control in reservoirs and tanks.

New body and design options added to the existing lineup of Zurn Wilkins ACV products include:

·       Angle ACV bodies, particularly useful for fire protection applications and high-rise plumbing applications with short compact lay lengths;

·        Reduced port ACV bodies;

·       Additional ACV size options for the globe style body: 1-1/4” and 16” now available.

 

This expansion of the ZW200 ACV series closely follows Zurn’s October 2015 introduction of the new braided stainless steel hose (-SH option), stainless steel pilotry (-SP option), and the ZW209 Pressure Reducing Valve series, that is equipped with a standard pilot valve constructed of robust bronze and improved union connections.

“Zurn focuses on innovation that delivers the most value to our customers,” says Ezra Phillips, Zurn Product Manager. “This is reflected in the Zurn Wilkins ACV products by, not only quick and easy in-line repairs, removal, and replacement, but also by an overall lower cost to the owner.”
