Time Valve Control
Simple device for automatically and -periodically opening and closing a dia phragm valve.
Has many applications, such as peri odically. flushing' of toilets, etc. Being simpler and more powerful in action, it is much superior to float tanks. Eightday clock, valve mechanism operates dia phragm valve on water supply by means of compressed air. Valve may be ope rated from 1 to 4 times per hour and for periods of 15 seconds to 5 minutes.
