Golden Valley, Minnesota-based water pump and filter company Pentair, Inc. announced Wednesday that it has agreed to acquire Tyco International Ltd.’s Flow Control business, known as Tyco Flow Control, in an all-stock transaction valued at $10 billion.

The deal comes some six months after Tyco International announced plans to split into three independent, publicly traded companies, each focusing on one of the conglomerate’s three main products: home security systems, flow control equipment, and commercial fire and security systems.
