Function

The balancing valve accurately controls the flow rate of heating and

cooling transfer fluid supplied to air handlers, fan coils and terminal units;

or where flow balancing is required in solar thermal systems. Proper

hydronic system balancing ensures the system operates according to

design specifications, providing satisfactory thermal comfort with low energy

consumption.The flow meter is housed in a by-pass circuit on the valve body

and can be shut off during normal operation. The flow meter permits fast and

easy circuit balancing without added differential pressure gauges and charts.

Complete closing/ opening of valve Complete closing of valve. Flow rate adjustment Complete opening of valve. The flow rate is adjusted by following these step-by-step instructions: A. With the aid of the indicator (1), mark the reference flow rate on which the valve is to be set. B. Open the isolating ball valves (2) turning them clockwise. Pull the operating ring (3) allowing the flow to pass through the flowmeter(4).

C. Keeping the flow meter bypass valve open, turn the flow rate adjusting handlwheel (5), Flow rate is indicated by the metal ball i(6) moving inside a transparent cylinder (7) alongside a graduated scale in GPM. D. After completing the balancing, release the ring (3) of the flow meter bypass valve, which will automatically go back into the closed position. Close the isolating ball valves. E.

Procedure for replacing bypass valve stem with operating ring 1. Remove bypass valve assembly with an 8 mm wrench. 2. Install replacement bypass valve assembly, code F19346, using locktight to seal the threads. CAUTION: If the balancing valve is not installed, commissioned and maintained properly, according to the instructions contained in this manual, it may not operate correctly and may endanger the user. CAUTION: Make sure that all the connecting pipework is water tight. Caleffi North America, Inc.
