If it is brass rather than poly, and the opening measures about a quarter inch, the VP221 is the one you want. If the base is poly, order the VP224K instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich pressure.\u003c\/strong\u003e The 1\/4 inch orifice is the low pressure option, for systems under 60 PSI. Higher pressure systems use the smaller 1\/8 inch orifice found on the VP226.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy it holds up.\u003c\/strong\u003e The VP2 series has no diaphragm, no cam link and no power link. That removes the parts that usually fail first and leaves a valve that tolerates dirty water. The plunger travels farther than the VP1 it replaces, so the flow is better.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fully assembled VP2 valves are the VP221, VP223, VP224, VP226 and VP227. The last two digits match the VP1 valve they replace.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hawkeye Steel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67579772666080,"sku":"VP221","price":57.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0657\/1078\/4736\/files\/vp221_ad3cdf25-b3d2-418e-bd67-20e9743b41cb.png?v=1790373510","url":"https:\/\/www.automaticwatererparts.com\/products\/pride-of-the-farm-waterer-vp221-brass-base-with-3-4-thread-low-pressure-1-4-orifice","provider":"Automatic Waterer Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
