Basic required application information
- Full flow GPM (or steam lbs/hr capacity)
- With pressure independent (PI) valves, only the full flow GPM is required to select the body size for series: ePIV, PIQCV, or Energy Valve
- Design pressure drop to achieve full flow (N/A for PI Valves between 5-50 psid)
- Valve porting, 2-Way or 3-Way (if 3-way is it mixing or diverting)
- Valve type: CCV, Globe, PI, Butterfly, Rotary, ZoneTight
- Control Signal: On/Off, Floating, Proportional, or other
- If On/Off, what is the voltage (24V,110V, 230V or other)
- If Proportional what is the control signal input (2-10VDC, 0-10VDC, or other)
- Fail-safe on power loss, if yes specify the fail position
- Any other items: end switches, feedback, conduit connections, etc.
- Outdoor weather covers, or NEMA 4 enclosure
Other application constraints
- Media temperature
- System pressure (steam valves REQUIRE valve inlet pressure and required heat exchanger inlet pressure)
- Desired close-off pressure (if not provided we will quote max available)
- Pipe size (may be required depending on specific application)
- Media content other than water and glycol
