WRAS Approval
This valve is fitted with WRAS approved EPDM sealing materials and forms part of WRAS Approval Certificate No. 250702716 for use with products complying with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Approval valid until 31 July 2030.
Why Choose This Valve?
This 2" WRAS valve L282D-BIG Series is the highest-flow model in the range, delivering an exceptional Kv of 34m³/hr through its 45mm full-bore orifice. It is designed for large commercial water systems, industrial process installations, sprinkler systems and priority water supplies where maintaining flow during power failure is essential. The fail-safe normally open operation ensures continuous water supply in critical applications, while the anti water hammer design helps minimise hydraulic shock for improved reliability and extended service life.
