Description
The V246 Series 2-Way Pressure-Actuated Water-Regulating Valves for High-Pressure Refrigerants come in two types of control action: direct acting or reverse acting. V246 valves regulate water flow to control refrigerant head pressure in systems with water-cooled condensers.
V246 valves have an adjustable opening point in a refrigerant pressure range of 200 to 400 psig (13.8 to 27.6 bar). V246 valves may be used with standard non-corrosive or ammonia refrigerants. For applications where the coolant may be corrosive to the internal parts, maritime models are available, which have nickel copper (Monel®) internal parts.
Features
- No Close Fitting or Sliding Parts in Water Passages
- Accessible Range Spring
- Take-Apart Construction
- Pressure-Balanced Design
- Corrosion-Resistant Material for Internal Parts
Applications
Each application is unique and requires specific engineering data to properly size and design a system to fulfill the appropriate requirements. Typically, a valve is replaced with another valve of the same size in a properly sized and engineered system.
