The iron body and the lid of the Standard boxes are made from durable cast iron meeting ASTM A48 Class 25 (25,000 PSI Tensile Strength), for decades of trouble-free service. The Yokebox provides automatic spacing and alignment for the meter, which can be inserted at any time during or after the installation of the meter box. The inlet, outlet and Expansion Connection are waterworks brass meeting the latest revision of AWWA Standard C800. The Dual Cartridge Check Valves have ASSE 1024 approval.Yokeboxes are ideal water meter housings for moderate and warm climates. They offer the following valuable features:1. Protection for the meter – protection for pedestrians because the lid locks firmly in place.2. Rapid meter reading.3. Quality Ford service valves – accessible and easily operated – designed for years of trouble-free service.4. Quick, easy, and wrench-free meter changing.5. Deterrent of unauthorized water use when the meter is removed6. Economical installation, requiring only minimal excavation.Yokebox Features The Standard Yokebox includes three iron castings: A base, an upper body casting and a locking lid. (an optional plastic upper section and lid are available on selective yokeboxes)Three brass items complete the Yokebox: Inlet and Outlet Pieces and an Expansion Connection.The Yokebox is available in three depths with dimensions of 5", 8", or 10" from ground surface to the center line of the meter.The largest variety of service line connections in the industry is available for angle or horizontal service line positions. An optional ASSE approved Cartridge Dual Check Valve on the outlet provides reliable and serviceable backflow protection and comes with the conventional types of service line connections for pipe and tubing.The Yokebox is available with either an Inverted Key Valve or a Ball Valve design. The valve position allows easy operation. The valve tee head is drilled and accepts an optional padlock plate to lock the valve in the closed or open position. The base keeps out dirt, mud, and pests, resulting in a cleaner meter. Holes in the base provide drainage.Yokeboxes are available to hold 5/8", 5/8"x3/4", 3/4" and 1" meters.The Yokebox is available with an optional Electronic Meter Reading lid. See page 5.The Yokebox is available with an optional hinged Meter Reading lid. A hinged cast iron flap provides a view of the meter register without removing the Yokebox lid. See page 5.Yokebox Specifications and ordering information can be found on pages 5 - 24.C-4All standard meter boxes are manufactured from Iron, ASTM A48, Class 25 (25,000 PSI Tensile Strength).Meter Box Installation 1. Backfill to make certain the grade is level with the top of the box. This will help avoid a tripping hazard.2. Lock lid securely into place. Locking style lids are preferred to prevent unauthorized removal that could create a safety hazard. If a lockless style lid is specified, make certain it fits properly into the frame so it is not subject to sliding or tipping out of position. Ford lockless lids have extra long alignment lugs to ensure proper lid placement.3. Lids and meter boxes are designed as a unit, and it is not a good practice to intermingle lids and boxes from various manufacturers. The incompatibility of components from other manufacturers could result in field complications and complaints. User assumes all risks of mixing another manufacturer’s meter box components with Ford meter boxes.4. Check on a regular basis to ensure proper operation of locking devices and to make certain the meter box lid remains at ground level. Keep components free from debris to ensure the lid seats properly. Always make sure lids are properly seated after every use to avoid injury.Ford Yokebox Lid Features and OptionsFord Plastic Lid for YokeboxFord’s plastic locking lids for Yokeboxes (YLP) are a wise choice for AMR systems, as they permit easy transmission of AMR signals. The plastic lid is available with an optional ERT bracket (YLP-BR) that allows the mounting of most transponders to the underside of the lid. UV resistant and slip resistant, they are excellent for lawn applications, walkways or other non-vehicular traffic areas. Iron Lids for Ford Meter BoxesAll Ford Iron Boxes offer the choice of standard iron locking lids or optional lockless lids.The tamper-proof lock is shown (left) from the underside of the lid. It is operated with a special “double-action” key, model MBLK. As the key retracts the spring-loaded lock pin, it attaches to the lid and becomes a lifter handle. The optional lockless lid has a bar pick-up for easy removal with a screwdriver or a similar tool such as the Meter Box Universal Key, model MBUK.Ford Reclaimed Water Iron Lid OptionFord iron lids are available with “Reclaimed Water” in raised lettering for use in nonpotable water systems.

*** Height is adjustable, depending on bolt length.Ford Yokebox Upper SectionFeatures and OptionsYokebox Enlarged Plastic Upper Section and Plastic Lid OptionFord’s Plastic Enlarged Yokebox Upper Section allows more space inside the meter box for ease of accessing the meter, or to include AMR components. The upper section, available in 7" or 9" heights (YJUC-7P or YJUC-9P), fits directly on the standard yokebox iron base or YBPR-4 riser, and uses the same fastening hardware as the standard yokebox. The compatible enlarged plastic lid (YJLP) is also available with an optional ERT bracket (YJLP-BR) for mounting most ERT transponders to the underside of the lid. Optional ABS Plastic Upper SectionAvailable for YL (shallow) Yokeboxes. A Plastic Upper Section uses the same bolts as a standard iron upper section to connect to Yokebox base. Accepts both standard locking or lockless lids. Insert “P” into the catalog number. Example: YLP144-233.Optional Grade AdjusterThe cast iron Grade Adjuster allows between 1-1/2" to 3" additional height to the grade level for a Yokebox or 2" - 3" for a Gulfbox after the initial installation. The unit attaches to the top of the box with stainless steel set screws and accepts both locking and lockless lids. Model: 9501Optional Yokebox RisersYokebox Risers increase the height of Yokebox Upper Sections.Two riser types (not adjustable) are available. The FYR-8 cast iron riser adds 8" to the overall height of the box, while the YBPR-4 plastic riser adds 4" to the height. The plastic riser is placed between the bottom casting and the upper section and uses the same nuts and bolts supplied with the original box. The FYR-8 riser fits over the top of the upper section and is secured with two silicon bronze “J” bolts. These risers are particularly useful for grade changes in areas where installed boxes have had winter freeze-up problems.Optional “Linesaver” (Type K) Upper Body CastingThis cast iron push-off upper body casting will shift without disturbing the base or damaging the service line if accidentally bumped by earth moving equipment following installation. It fits over the standard Yokebox base and is held in position by a lip which extends over it rather than being bolted to the base. Its 10" height can be extended with Elevator Rings described below.Elevator Ring (Type K) for use with “Linesaver” Upper Body CastingThese cast iron rings are 3" in height and can be stacked between the upper and base units to achieve the desired height of setting. These Do Not adapt to bolted-type standard Yokeboxes.

It eliminates wrenches in the meter box during meter change-outs, permitting Ford Boxes to be smaller than ordinary concrete or plastic boxes.Options available (see page 20 for applicable catalog number option codes)Locking Expansion ConnectionA Locking Expansion Connection (ECL-x) is an easy way to secure the meter setting or prevent unauthorized removal of water meters. Once properly installed, a proprietary key is required to engage or disengage a proprietary security screw that recesses within the Expansion Connection. The security screw engages any one of several grooves on the barrel to prevent operation of the handwheel. The Expansion Connection is also available with or without Ford’s proprietary security screw. (Utilities or municipalities may procure their own unique security screw pattern and access key. Contact the factory for more information.)Expansion Connection with Check ValvesThis Expansion Connection is an easy and inexpensive way of incorporating a backflow preventer into an existing meter box, as compared to the traditional method of excavating the service. 5/8" and 5/8"x3/4" Expansion Connections have dual checks. The 1" size has only one check valve. All Expansion Connections with Dual Check Valves are designed to withstand 150 psi maximum working water pressure and 180 degrees Fahrenheit maximum working water temperature. The Expansion Connection with Check Valves(s) is also available with the locking feature.The Ball Valve inlet connections are horizontal. Key Valve inlet connections feature straight or angle configurations. Various types of connections for pipe and tubing are available. The Ford Yokebox is available with a Cartridge Dual Check Valve (ASSE 1024 approved) on the outlet. This optional feature provides for reliable backflow protection and comes with various types of connections for pipe and tubing. See next page.The Inlet Ball Valve features a solid one piece tee-head and stem. EPDM O-rings in the stem assure a watertight seal at the top. Molded EDPM rubber seats support the ball. The fluorocarbon coated brass ball will provide years of maintenance free service.Design Features of Ball Valves used in Ford YokeboxesThe straight inlet Ball Valve features a solid one piece tee-head and stem. An EPDM O-ring on the stem assures a watertight seal at the top. Molded EPDM rubber seats support the ball.

The Ford Long Yokebox is a complete, compact meter-setting package that fills your residential back-flow control requirements.A lot has changed since the “good old days” when a utility’s responsibility for water quality ended at the outlet of the water meter. The Federal Safe Drinking Water Act, and a host of state and local regulations, now defines you as responsible for delivery of quality water to the faucet inside your customer’s home or business. The entry of objectionable or hazardous material into the customer’s plumbing may expose your utility, and you personally, to expensive and time consuming legal action.Until now, implementation of a backflow program for a utility using Yokeboxes was a challenge. Long Yokeboxes are complete, compact meter-setting packages, which are installed as a unit and include removable ASSE approved Cartridge Style Dual Check Valves contained completely within the box. The Long Yokebox provides automatic spacing and alignment for the meter and the Dual Cartridge Style Check Valve, which can be inserted at any time during or after the installation of the meter box. The Ford Long Yokebox design offers the maximum convenience of operation; the check valve attaches directly to the meter. A few turns of the Expansion Connection will allow the meter and check valve to be removed or installed as one unit. This provides for fast and easy maintenance of the meter and the check valve. The inlet, outlet, dual check valve and Expansion Connection are manufactured of waterworks brass meeting the latest revision of AWWA Standard C800. The Cartridge Dual Check Valves have ASSE 1024 approval. Ford is THE choice of Check Valves for Water Utilities. Ford offers Check Valves that have some of the lowest water pressure head loss figuresin the industry.Remember, only the Long Yokebox delivers Ford Meter Box quality, service and dependability.C-26Specifications and InformationLong Yokeboxes For 5/8" and 5/8"x3/4" Meters Long Yokeboxes are ideal water meter housings for moderate and warm climates. They offer the following valuable features: 1. Protection for the meter – protection for pedestrians because of the small lid area. 2. Backflow protection – Dual Cartridge Check Valve with ASSE 1024 certification. 3. Rapid meter reading. 4. Quality Ford service valves – accessible and easily operated – designed for years of trouble-free service. 5. Quick, easy, and wrench-free meter changing. 6. The largest variety of service line connections in the industry. 7. Economical installation, requiring only minimal excavation. 8. Security – When the meter is removed from the Long Yokebox, the Expansion Connection and check valve are also removed. No ordinary pipe fittings will connect the ends, deterring unauthorized water use – see description of the Expansion Connection on page 29. A lockable Expansion Connection option is available. See pages 7 and 37Long Yokebox Specifications and FeaturesThe Standard Long Yokebox includes three iron castings: 1. A base. 2. An upper body casting. 3. A locking lid. (Lockless lids or locking plastic lids are available upon request.) Four brass items complete the unit: Inlet and Outlet pieces, an Expansion Connection, and a Dual Check Valve.Additional Long Yokebox Specifications and ordering information on pages 27 - 40.The Long Yokebox is available with an optional Electronic Meter Reading iron lid.See page 27.The base keeps out dirt, mud, and pests, resulting in a cleaner meter. Holes in the base provide drainage.The Long Yokebox is available with either an Inverted Key Valve or a Ball Valve design. The valve position allows easy operation. Valves are available on the inlet and the outlet, horizontal or 60° angle.The Long Yokebox is large enough to hold a 5/8", 5/8"x3/4" or full 3/4" meter.All brass valves and fittings meet the latest revision of AWWA Standard C800.All Iron Castings meet ASTM A48,Class 25 (25,000 PSI Tensile Strength).An ASSE approved Cartridge Dual Check Valve, installed completely inside the box, provides reliable backflow protection. The dual check attaches directly to the meter and provides a complete, exchangeable unit. This allows shop testing, maintenance and assembly of the meter and check valve in controlled conditions. The assembly makes field change-outs quick and easy.The greatest variety of service line connections in the industry is available for angle or horizontal service line positions. Outlet valves arealso available.Ford Long Yokebox Features and OptionsOptional Plastic Upper SectionAvailable for LYL Long Yokeboxes, the LYPB Upper Section is made from high density polyethylene structural foam plastic. The LYPB Plastic Upper Section uses the same bolts as a standard iron upper section to connect to Long Yokebox base. Accepts both standard locking or optional lockless lids. Insert “P” into the catalog number. Example: LYLBP222-233.Optional Iron Grade Adjuster for Cast Iron Upper SectionThe LYGA Grade Adjuster allows between 1" to 3-1/2" additional height to the grade level after the initial installation. The unit attaches to the top of the box with stainless steel set screws and accepts both locking and lockless lids.Optional Long Yokebox RisersLong Yokebox Risers increase the height of Long Yokebox Upper Sections with three riser heights (not adjustable) available. The LYIR-6 cast iron riser adds 6" to the overall height of the box, the LYIR-4 iron riser adds 4" to the height and the LYIR-2 adds 2". The LYPR-4 plastic riser is placed between the base and the upper section, and secures to the base and upper section with self-tapping screws. The cast iron risers fit over the top of the upper section and are secured with silicon bronze “J” bolts. These risers are particularly useful for grade changes in areas where installed boxes have had winter freeze-up problems.Ford Plastic Lid for Long YokeboxFord’s plastic locking lids for Long Yokeboxes (LYLP) are a wise choice for AMR systems, as they permit easy transmission of AMR signals. The plastic lid is available with an optional ERT bracket (LYLP-BR) that allows mounting of most transponders to the underside of the lid. UV resistant and slip resistant, they are excellent for lawn applications walkways or other non-vehicular traffic areas.Iron Lids for Ford Meter BoxesAll Ford cast iron meter boxes Boxes offer the choice of a standard locking lid or an optional lockless lid.The tamper-proof lock is shown (left) from the underside of the lid. It is operated with a special “double-action” key (MBLK). As the key retracts the spring-loaded lock pin, it attaches to the lid and becomes a lifter handle. The optional lockless lid has a bar pick-up for easy removal with a screwdriver or a similar tool such as the Meter Box Universal Key, model MBUK.Ford Electronic Meter Reading Iron Lid optionFord lids are available with precast holes for electronic meter reading modules. This option is designated with a “-T” for a single hole cover and a “-NPR” for a Pit Pro Read single hole cover. Example: LYLB222-233-T. See the table below for hole size information.Ford Electronic Meter Reading Iron Lid with Removable PlugAn optional cast iron plug, removable for future electronic meter reading module installations, is available for all Ford Yokebox iron Lids. This option is designated with a “-TP” for a single hole cover. Example: LYLB222-233-TP. See the table below for hole size information. A plastic plug and nut is also available to improve transmission of AMR signals. Add “-PTP” to the end of the catalog number. Example: LYLB222-233-PTP.

The cast iron box has a built-in vertical adjustability of 7". The barrel of the box is in two parts, with cast threads on both, permitting the outer barrel to be screwed up and down over the inner barrel. The Crescent Box is raised or lowered to adapt easily to site requirements during installation.At any time the Crescent Box can be quickly adjusted to a new grade or sidewalk level, saving expensive labor hours and possible meter box replacement costs. This feature can be an important factor in providing greater pedestrian safety.Crescent Boxes are installed in the service line as a unit. The meter can be inserted either during or after insta l la t ion. These boxes come equipped with straight inlet and outlet connections only.C-53 Crescent Box Dimensions METER A B C D SIZE 5/8" 12-1/2" 11"—18" 2-3/4" 11-1/4" 5/8"x3/4" 12-1/2" 11"—18" 2-3/4" 11-1/4" 3/4" 12-1/2" 14"—21" 2-3/4" 13" 1" 12-1/2" 15"—22" 4-1/4" *16"*16" x 12" ovalBCADOther Crescent Box Features1. The complete cast iron housing meeting ASTM A48, Class 25 (25,000 PSI Tensile Strength) keeps the meter clean – free from dirt and pests – and easy to read.2. The box includes a convenient brass inlet valve. The inlet valve, clamping device, and outlet connection are waterworks brass, meeting the latest revision of AWWA Specification C800.3. Removing or installing meters is quick and simple because of the effective meter clamping device contained in the box (similar in operation to the standard Expansion Connection described on page 7). Perfect alignment and spacing of service lines is maintained during meter changeouts.4. Crescent Box locking or lockless iron lids are round, providing a lid opening of 10-1/2". A plastic locking lid is available. See page 5 for description of lock. All lids are interchangeable among the four sizes of boxes listed.NOTE: Iron lockless lids are standard on Crescent Boxes.Crescent Box DesignPictured is the Lockless type iron lid – note guide webs and lifting notches. Locking lids are available with the same lock as described on page 5.Cast iron outer barrel, showing bead around top to prevent settling when installed in concrete.Cast iron inner barrel, showing threads on outside that screw into threads in outer barrel.Cast iron base unit holds brass inlet valve, the meter clamping device and outlet connection.C-54Ford Crescent BoxesFor 5/8", 5/8"x3/4", 3/4", and 1" Meters The outer barrel threads of the Crescent Box screw onto the inner barrel threads. By simply rotating the outer barrel on the inner barrel, the overall height of box can be adjusted vertically as much as 7". During installation the Crescent Box can be raised or lowered to match the surface or grade level, after being connected to the service line.At any time after installation, the Crescent Box can be adjusted to a new grade or sidewalk level. This can save expensive labor hours and even meter box replacement costs.At left are two pictures of the CB111-233 Crescent Box, the first showing the box contracted to its minimum depth of 11", the second showing the same box extended to its maximum depth of 18". The minimum elevation of lid above the center of the service line is 11" for 5/8" (CB111-133) and 5/8"x3/4" (CB111-233) meter sizes; 14" for 3/4" meters (CB111-333); 15-1/2" for 1" meters (CB111-444).Crescent Boxes for 3/4" and 1" MetersCB111-333 and CB111-444 Crescent Boxes have larger diameter bases than the CB111-133, CB144-133, and CB111-233 Crescent Boxes, but use the same size barrels and lids.CRESCENT BOXESCATALOG
