Apollo 36ELF10501T Water Pressure Reducing Valve 1 In
Reduces incoming water pressure to an adjustable 15–75 psi range with a 50 psi factory setting, built from lead-free bronze certified to NSF/ANSI 61 and ASSE 1003 standards
- Adjustable 15-75 psi range protects downstream fixtures
- Factory-set 50 psi delivers consistent pressure out of the box
- Lead-free bronze body meets NSF/ANSI 61 and CA AB1953
- Rated for 400 PSI working pressure and 180 °F service
- Certified to ASSE 1003 and CSA B356 standards
Purpose and fit
The Apollo 36ELF10501T is a lead-free bronze water pressure reducing valve with a 1-inch NPT inlet and outlet. It protects downstream plumbing by lowering incoming supply pressure to a factory-set 50 psi, adjustable between 15 and 75 psi.
Who this suits and who it does not
It suits residential or light-commercial systems that require a certified, lead-free valve rated for 400 psi working pressure and 180 °F maximum temperature. Builders needing a larger connection size, a different adjustment range, or a valve without NSF/ANSI 61 and ASSE 1003 compliance should look elsewhere.
Deciding specification
The 1-inch NPT connection combined with the 15-75 psi adjustable range is the single specification that determines whether this valve matches the piping and pressure requirements of the installation.

Questions about this item
How often should the internal cartridge or seals be inspected or replaced on the Apollo 36ELF10501T?
Inspect the valve annually for scale or debris; replace the cartridge or seat if pressure drifts outside the 15-75 psi adjustable range or if leakage appears at the NPT connections.
What is the first limit reached when the valve runs continuously at high flow?
The maximum working pressure of 400 psi is the primary structural limit; sustained inlet pressure above that risks body deformation before temperature reaches the 180 °F rating.
How much heat does the valve body radiate when regulating 50 psi all day?
The lead-free bronze body stays near water temperature; with a 180 °F maximum rating it adds negligible ambient heat in normal 50 psi operation.
