Ball water valve FERRO KFPZF2 3/4" threaded coupling with filter and gland, lever handle

FERRO KFPZF2 is a 3/4" ball water valve with threaded nut-to-nut connections, a manual lever handle, an integrated filter screen and a gland for improved sealing. The valve is intended for use in domestic and light commercial plumbing systems where isolation of a water line, protection of downstream equipment and a reliable threaded connection are required. Its compact design and straightforward operation allow quick shut-off and service access while the built-in strainer reduces the risk of debris reaching appliances and meters.

Advantages

The FERRO KFPZF2 combines a quarter-turn ball mechanism with a lever handle for fast and unambiguous on/off operation. Threaded nut-to-nut connections simplify installation into existing pipe runs without the need for special adapters. An integrated filter captures particulates to protect valves, filters and measuring devices downstream, while the gland provides additional sealing and allows tightening to prevent leaks. The valve’s metal construction ensures mechanical durability under typical household water pressures and temperatures.

Suitable for

• Isolation of water lines in residential plumbing
• Protecting household appliances, meters and small filters from debris
• Service shut-off for boilers, radiators and water heaters
• Point-of-use isolation in light commercial installations

Key specifications

• Nominal size: 3/4"
• Connection type: threaded nut-to-nut coupling
• Operation: lever handle, quarter-turn ball valve
• Integrated feature: mesh filter/strainer
• Sealing: adjustable gland for improved leak prevention
• Material: metal body and internal ball (standard plumbing-grade alloys)

How to use

Install the valve inline using the threaded nut-to-nut connections; ensure pipe threads are clean and properly sealed with appropriate thread sealant or tape. Orient the lever handle for clear visual indication of flow (parallel to the pipe for open, perpendicular for closed). During installation, hand-tighten the nuts and then use appropriate tools to secure to manufacturer-recommended torque to avoid over-tightening. Periodically inspect the integrated filter and remove accumulated debris by isolating the valve, unscrewing the housing if applicable and cleaning the strainer element. Re-tighten the gland if minor leaks are observed, following safe isolation procedures before any intervention.

Usage recommendations

Use the FERRO KFPZF2 valve in systems with compatible fluid temperatures and pressures typical for potable water and heating circuits. Avoid aggressive chemicals and fluids outside the valve’s intended use. Schedule periodic visual inspections and cleaning of the integrated filter to maintain flow and protect downstream equipment.
