The simple answer is the tuba (the BBb tuba), however, the French Horn, bass Trombone and tuba are all capable of playing very low notes. It really depends on the players lip, as the best ones can "lip notes down" a great deal.
There are also a few "freak instruments" like the sub-contrabass horn (only a couple in the world - don't write for it unless you know someone who has one) that people are constantly making and inventing, however, none of these are considered "standard instruments".

How do valves and slides affect the pitch on brass instruments?
Brass instruments produce sound by the vibrating of the player's embouchure in a mouthpiece, and the valves and slides on the instrument alter the length of the tubing in the instrument which affects the pitch of the notes produced. The farther the air has to travel in the instrument the lower the pitch of the sound is, whereas the less distance the air has to travel the higher the pitch the instrument will produce.

How does a brass instrument make noise?
Brass instruments are different from all the other instruments in that the person playing is solely responsible for the sound of the instrument. Brass instruments require the player to buzz their lips in the mouthpiece. This sound reverberates throughout the instrument and produces the sound that comes out of it. This differs from other instruments, where the player makes part of the instrument vibrate (i.e. reed, string, drum head). The pitch of brass instruments is then changed by changing the frequency of the vibrations created by the lips. If you buzz your lips at a higher pitch, the instrument plays a higher note. The opposite is also true. Buzzing your lips at a lower pitch creates a lower note.
