MT Series Terminal Unit Valve
and Actuator Assembly

Description
This Technical Bulletin aids in selecting a Powermite 599 Series MT Series terminal
unit valve and actuator assembly. Figure 1 provides a graph of water capacity for
selecting the proper valve size. Figures 2 through 5 show close-off pressures for
selecting an actuator according to specifications.
Tables 2 through 10 identify the product numbers. Table 1 provides a guide to these
tables. The tables show all possible combinations of Powermite 599 Series valves and
compatible actuators that can be ordered as complete valve assemblies from the
factory.
Tables 11 through 13 provide the dimensions of all valves and the service envelope
required for each actuator.
Using the Valve and
Actuator Selection
Graphs
Use Figure 1, the water capacity graph, to select a valve size as follows:
1. Locate the specified flow rate on the vertical axis.
2. Follow across on the horizontal axis to the point of intersection with the specified
pressure drop.
3. Choose the valve size from the heavy diagonal lines across the graph.
Use Figures 2 through 5, the close-off pressure graphs, to select an actuator as follows:
1. Choose the graph for the valve action (normally open or closed) and actuator
power source (electronic or pneumatic) specified.
2. Locate the bar that represents the valve size. The top of the bar indicates the
maximum close-off pressure for tight close off.
Use the legend at the bottom of the graph to identify the actuator.
Using the Valve and
Actuator Assembly
Tables
Use Tables 2 through 10 to select a valve and actuator assembly as follows:
1. Locate the appropriate table based on the required valve type, valve action, and
actuator type per Table 1.
2. Read Tables 2 through 10 from left to right and select the appropriate valve
specifications to identify the row with the required valve body.
3. Read across the top of the table and select the appropriate actuator specifications
to identify the column with the required actuator.
4. Read down the actuator column and read across the valve body row. The
column/row intersection determines the appropriate valve and actuator assembly.
The valve and actuator assembly product number is the actuator prefix code added
to the valve body suffix.
