Trough Installation:
- Flush pipelines into water troughs before installing Valve into the new system
- Isolate the water trough to replace a valve in the existing scheme
- Thread the O-Ring end of correct size male adaptor into the valve body and tighten firmly enough that the O-Ring creates a seal against the face. Do not overtighten.
Top Entry Trough:
- Thread Max Flo Valve into existing trough fitting
- Determine the on/off point and water level required
- Use supplied Adjustable Extension Arm when a larger air gap/lower water level is required
- Adjust the float and arms to suit the required angle
Side / Bottom Entry Trough:
- Thread Max Flo Valve into existing trough fitting
- Thread cord through the float, adjust the cord to required on/off level then tie off
Tank Installation:
- Install tank fitting into the water tank
- Flush lines into the water tank before installing Valve into the system
- Thread the O-Ring end of correct size male adaptor into the valve body and tighten firmly enough that the O-Ring creates a seal against the face. Do not over tighten
- Thread Valve into Tank Fitting inside the tank
- Thread cord through the float, adjust the cord to required on/off level then tie off.

Yes, the Hansen Valve can be installed at the top, side or bottom entry as all components come with each valve.
My troughs have both 20mm & 25mm threaded inlets. Does the Hansen Valve come in both sizes? Expand
Yes each Hansen Valve comes with the required components to install in 20mm or 25mm threaded inlets. This of course means you only have to buy one valve for all sized inlets.
Will the higher flow cost me more to run my pump? ExpandNo, because the Hansen Valve is more efficient than what you are used to. The reduced operating pressure required will equate to higher flows at lower pressures at your pump which in turn will reduce pumping time and cost.
At present I get valve bounce in my troughs, will the Hansen Valve stop this? ExpandYes, valve bounce is created from high flows at high pressures, the Hansen Valve opens and closes slower than other valves so will reduce incidences of this problem.
I have problems with having to constantly clean my valves as my water supply can get dirty at times, how will your valve handle these conditions? ExpandOur patent pending “Self Cleaning Pilot” will increase durability and suitability in dirty water situations.
At present I have noticed some shuddering & noise in my pipelines when my pump starts & stops, will your valve stop this? ExpandYes this is called water hammer, we have designed the Hansen Valve to open & close slower than other valves effectively varying the flows at these times to minimise the chance of water hammer.
What pressure can I run my Hansen Valve at? ExpandThe Hansen Valve will operate from 0.2bar to 12bar.
