Ford Meter Box vbb77-15-11-77-nl 2 in Copper Setter Ball Valve

Product Description

The FORD METER BOX vbb77-15-11-77-nl is a 2-inch flanged copper setter with an integrated ball valve, designed for water meter installation applications. Built to no-lead compliance standards, this setter stands 15 inches high and features a horizontal inlet and horizontal outlet configuration. Connections are 2-inch FIP by 2-inch FIP, making it straightforward to thread into existing copper service line installations. Weighing approximately 34.15 pounds, this is a robust, full-size unit intended for installation by licensed plumbers working on residential or light commercial water metering services.

This copper setter is used in water meter pit or vault installations where a flanged connection to a water meter is required. The horizontal inlet and horizontal outlet layout suits common in-line meter settings. The integrated ball valve allows the service technician to isolate flow without a separate shutoff, streamlining the meter set assembly. The no-lead construction meets current drinking water compliance requirements for potable water systems.

Key Features

• No-lead construction for compliance with potable water regulations
• Integrated ball valve for in-line flow shutoff at the meter
• Horizontal inlet and horizontal outlet configuration for in-line installation
• 2-inch FIP by 2-inch FIP threaded connections
• Flanged meter connections for secure meter coupling
• 15-inch height accommodates standard meter pit depth requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation copper setter for 2-inch flanged water meters in residential and light commercial potable water metering systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and applicable IPC requirements. Shut off the water main and depressurize the service line before beginning installation. Use appropriate pipe thread sealant rated for potable water on all FIP connections. Do not overtighten flanged meter couplings, as this may distort sealing surfaces.
