FLOAT & LEVER VALVES
The Keckley Company offers a complete line of float and lever
valves to suit a wide variety of applications
Since 1914, Keckley engineering and manufacturing has been working for industry and commercial building installations worldwide. Keckley float valves and lever valves excel in their construction and performance.

With the purchase of Klipfel Valves Inc. in 1962, there was a combining of engineering talents and features of both valve companies resulting today in this complete line.

Float valves and lever valves are designed to control the level of liquids through mechanically actuation. Float valves are actuated through the attached float ball, float rod, and lever assembly and do not require any external power source. Lever valves are actuated through the use of some external power source such as manual operation, float boxes/mechanisms, electric motors or other actuators, through external linkage to the lever of the valve.

Typical Applications include
Open or closed storage tanks
