INSTALLATION GUIDE (See image gallery for visual chart and guide)
- TROUGH/TANK INSTALLATION
- Flush pipe lines into water troughs before installing Super Flo Valve into new system.
- Isolate the water trough to replace valve in existing scheme.
- Put thread tape on adaptor side that does not have O-ring and start the adaptor into trough inlet.
- SIDE ENTRY TROUGH (See image gallery for visual chart and guide)
- Flush pipe lines into water troughs before installing Super Flo Valve into new system.
- Isolate the water trough to replace valve in existing scheme.
- Put thread tape on adaptor side that does not have O-ring and start the adaptor into trough inlet.
- TOP ENTRY TROUGH (See image gallery for visual chart and guide)
- Thread Super Flo Valve onto adaptor & tighten.
- Screw the float onto the brass arm.
- Hold the body of the valve at arm entry point.
- Bend brass arm to achieve the correct on/off and water level.

CORD AND NUTS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQS)
- Q: At certain times of the year I need to run portable troughs in my paddocks, is it possible to run these off my existing Super-Flo valve?
- A: Yes, the Super-Flo trough Valve incorporates a 25mm (1”) thread on the valve outlet which you can utilise the spare adaptors that come with the valve to enable you to attach any number of poly pipe fittings to the Super-Flo trough Valve. This off take can be used for any number of farm applications.
- Q: At present I get valve bounce in my troughs, will the Super-Flo valve stop this?
- A: Yes, valve bounce is created from high flows at high pressures, because our Hansen Super-Flo valve delivers higher flows than other valves it will effectively reduce line pressure which in return will reduce the incidences of this problem by also reducing water hammer.
- Q: I have a compact float valve in a header tank. The flow is too low into the tank and won’t keep up with our requirements. I can’t fit a larger valve into this tank, if I replace it with a Hansen Fast-Flo valve will the flow be any better?
- A: Yes, the Fast-Flo valve has the highest flow of any valve in its class/size. At 500 kPa (73psi) it will deliver 56 l/min.
- Q: I have a header tank in my house that is very noisy while filling, will the Hansen Fast-Flo valve be any quieter?
- A: The noise while the tank is filling is caused by the high velocity of the water from the valve outlet into the tank. The Fast-Flo valve outlet doubles as a spigot so you can attach a length of hose to allow the flow to be placed onto the bottom of the tank eliminating this noise.
- Q: I have found the rubber seats in the compact trough valves I am using don’t last very long, does the Hansen Fast-Flo valve use the same rubber seat?
- A: No, the seat we use in Hansen Float Valves are urethane which is a very durable and hard material. The seal is also reversible if a foreign body should damage it.
- Q: I have problems with having to forever clean my valves as my water supply can get dirty at times, how will the Hansen Super-Flo valve handle these conditions?
- A: We have designed the Hansen Super-Flo valve to work in either clean or dirty water situations.
- Q: My troughs have both 20mm & 25mm threaded inlets, does your Hansen Super-Flo Valve come in both sizes?
- A: Yes, the Hansen Super-Flo Valve comes with the required components to install in 20mm or 25mm threaded inlets. This of course means you only need to buy one valve for all sized inlets.
- Q: The pressure at my header tank is quite high and the compact float valves I have used either don’t last very long or they don’t shut off properly and I find the overflow running. Will the Hansen Fast-Flo valve work with high pressure.
- A: Yes, the Fast-Flo Valve has the arm pivot point positioned to allow closing at pressures up to 12 bar (174psi) with a 115mm float attached.
- Q: The valves I have a present have a tendency to jam open or closed costing me time and either a bog around my trough or no available water for my stock, will your valves stop this problem?
- A: Yes, the Hansen Super-Flo valve has a new patent pending “Slipper Fit Piston” design seal assembly to minimise this problem.
- Q: What pressure can I run my Hansen Super-Flo Valve at?
- A: The Hansen Sueper-Flo Valve will operate from 0.2 bar to 12 bar.
- Q: What size tank inlet do I need to fit the Hansen Fast-Flo Valve?
- A: All Hansen float valves carry a 25mm (1”) female thread on the valve inlet. This gives you a couple of benefits. The valve will fit inlets from 15mm to 50mm when using our range of adaptors. The additional material used at the inlet to form the female thread strengthens the valve at an area that has been identified as a weak point in other brands of valves.
- Q: Will the Hansen Fast-Flo valve work in my calf shed bowl troughs?
- A: Yes, the Fast-Flo was designed as a compact valve for use in small bowls, compact troughs, feeders & header tanks or any situation where the valve space is confined.
- Q: Will the higher flow cost me more to run my pump?
- A: No, because the Hansen Super-Flo valve is more efficient than what you are used to. The reduced operating pressure required will equate to higher flows at lower pressures at your pump which in turn will reduce pumping time and cost.
