Description
Description
The Pride of the Farm VP224K valve is the next generation valve which replaces the VP1 valve series. The VP224K is found in the Poly waterers. Pride of the Farm valve provides simplicity with few moving parts and has the following features.
- Greater flow rate due to the plunger traveling a longer distance
- Greater tolerance to operation in dirty conditions
- No diaphragm, cam link or power link which means fewer maintenance items.
Easily replaces the VP1 valve and designed with fewer parts to create increased water flow.
NOTE: The fully assembled valve part numbers are VP221, VP223, VP224, VP226, VP227. The last 2 numbers on VP2 match up with the VP1 valve. If your drinker originally took the VP124, order a VP224, etc.
TIP
If you want to replace a VP1 valve with a VP2 valve, the base and assembly nut can remain connected to your water supply line.
