Watts 9465 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What pipe connections does the Watts 0009465 2 inch pressure reducing valve have?
The Watts 0009465 is a 2 inch valve with a union female NPT threaded inlet and a plain female NPT threaded outlet. Both ends are 2 inch NPT, so it threads directly to 2 inch iron pipe or to copper using threaded adapters. The union on the inlet side lets you break the valve out for service without cutting pipe.
2) What pressure can the Watts 0009465 be set to, and what does it come set at from the factory?
Adjustable from 25 to 75 psi (1.7 to 5.2 bar), shipped set at 50 psi (3.4 bar). If your building needs a lower downstream pressure than 25 psi or higher than 75, this is the wrong valve. Inlet side handles up to 300 psi (20.7 bar) working pressure.
3) Is the Watts 0009465 lead free and legal for potable water?
The body is a lead free copper silicon alloy, which is what makes the 0009465 suitable for potable water service in both commercial and residential systems. The seal disc is EPDM and the strainer is stainless steel.
4) Do I still need a separate thermal expansion tank with this Watts PRV?
The 0009465 has a built-in thermal expansion bypass, so pressure built up downstream by a water heater can bleed back through the valve to the supply rather than being trapped. That bypass handles thermal expansion from the valve's standpoint; it does not replace an expansion tank where your local code or the water heater manufacturer requires one.
5) Does the Watts 0009465 include a strainer, or do I need to pipe one in ahead of it?
An integral stainless steel strainer is built into the valve, so no separate upstream strainer is required to protect the seat. Plan for clearance at the strainer cap so it can be pulled and cleaned in place.
6) Can this 2 inch Watts pressure reducing valve be used on a hot water line?
Yes, within temperature limits: maximum operating temperature is 180 F (82 C) and minimum is 33 F (0.5 C). That covers domestic hot water recirculation and tempered lines, but not boiler or steam service.
7) Which Watts part number and series do I order for a 2 inch union female NPT lead free PRV?
Order Watts part 9465, from the LF25AUB-Z3 series. The Z3 designation is the 25 to 75 psi adjustable range; other Watts range codes in the same body family set to different pressures, so match the code to the downstream pressure you need.
