Apex Xtraflo Top Entry Armless Automatic Trough Valve – High Flow with Backflow Prevention

The Apex Xtraflo Top Entry Armless Automatic Trough Valve is a high-capacity mechanical valve designed to maintain water levels in livestock troughs, tanks, and header systems with very high demand. Featuring a compact armless diaphragm design, the valve provides unrestricted full-flow operation, allowing rapid filling while reducing pump strain and energy consumption.

Installed above the waterline, the top-entry configuration creates an air gap that provides effective backflow prevention, protecting the supply from contamination. The valve operates on a full on, full off principle with a controlled water level differential between opening and closing, enabling pumps to run efficiently until the trough is full while minimising frequent cycling.

Engineered for harsh agricultural environments, the robust construction resists corrosion, UV exposure, and livestock damage. A patented self-cleaning mechanism helps prevent blockages, ensuring reliable long-term performance with minimal maintenance. With adjustable level settings and extremely high flow capability, the Xtraflo valve is ideal for large troughs, tanks, and header systems requiring dependable automatic water control.
