EB-45 Direct SharkBite
®
Pressure
Regulating Valve
DESCRIPTION
The Cash Acme EB-45 Direct SharkBite Valve (EB45-DSB) is a lead free* half-cartridge based
pressure reducing and regulating valve with a bronze body. The valve construction is similar to
a traditional regulator in that it retains a separate spring chamber and adjusting screw, but
offers the simplicity and maintenance benefits of a cartridge based valve.
The EB45-DSB is assembled using modular construction methods and features integral
SharkBite connections in 1/2" through 1" sizes. Connect the SharkBite pressure regulating
valve to copper tubing, and CTS CPVC and PEX in seconds with ease.
The EB45-DSB is supplied by the factory with a standard delivery setting of 45 psi. The outlet
pressure can be adjusted from 10-70 psi without changing the spring. This valve is intended
for use where supply line pressure does not exceed 200 psi, and is suited for either cold or hot
(to 180°F) water service. All models are lead free*.
