1-1/2" FNPT Low Lead Brass Spring Foot Valve

This Campbell foot valve uses a spring-loaded design with an inline brass body and stainless-steel strainer. It connects via 1-1/2" FNPT threads and is rated for water pressures up to 200 psi. The cracking pressure is .5 psi and the operating temperature range spans 35 to 158 degrees Fahrenheit. It mounts in either horizontal or vertical orientation.

Installers needing a low-lead brass check valve

The valve suits residential or light-commercial water systems that require a spring return and inline flow path. It is not rated for steam service, so installers working with steam circuits should select a different model. Buyers who need a flanged connection or a larger pipe size will also need an alternative product.

Threaded installation with standard pipe tools

The FNPT ends allow direct threading onto 1-1/2" male pipe fittings without special equipment. The spring mechanism functions in both horizontal and vertical mounting positions, simplifying layout choices. Debris that bypasses the stainless-steel strainer can foul the seat, so periodic inspection is recommended to maintain sealing performance.

Questions about this item

What pipe thread size must my suction line have to connect to this foot valve?

The valve uses a 1-1/2" FNPT connection on both ends, so your suction pipe needs matching 1-1/2" male NPT threads for a direct fit.

Will the 0.5 psi cracking pressure work with my existing shallow-well jet pump?

Yes, the low 0.5 psi cracking pressure lets the spring open easily, making it compatible with most shallow-well jet pumps that need minimal head loss on the suction side.

How can I confirm the valve is holding prime after installation?

After priming the pump, watch the pressure gauge; if pressure stays steady at or below 200 psi and the pump does not lose prime between cycles, the foot valve is sealing correctly.
