Apex PumpBuddy Dual Level Automatic Float Valve – Pumped Tank Control

The Apex PumpBuddy Dual Level Automatic Float Valve is a high-volume inlet control device designed specifically for pump-fed tanks, reservoirs and rainwater harvesting systems. Engineered to maintain adjustable minimum and maximum water levels, the PumpBuddy automatically controls tank filling without the need for electrical components at the tank, making it ideal for remote or off-grid installations.

Using a differential float system with adjustable cord weights, the valve provides full-flow operation between set levels and shuts off automatically once the upper level is reached. This reduces pump cycling, improves system efficiency, and helps extend pump life while maintaining a reliable water supply for domestic, agricultural, or commercial storage tanks.

The robust design delivers high flow performance with minimal pressure loss, allowing rapid tank filling while preventing water hammer through smooth closing action. Because it operates purely mechanically, the PumpBuddy eliminates the need for float switches, power supply wiring, or electronic controllers at the tank.

Suitable for large storage tanks, troughs, reservoirs, and backup water supply systems, the valve supports wide pressure ranges and water temperatures, making it a dependable solution for pumped water applications where automatic level control is required.
