Thermal actuator ABN-FBH
Application
Functions
The ABN-FHB actuator is a thermoelectric
actuator for opening and closing valves on
heating circuit manifolds in underoor heating
systems. The actuator has been specially developed for targeted use in the widest variety of
systems. Its compact size, design, functionality
and exibility are the most impressive features.
A valve adapter concept guarantees the perfect
adjustment of the actuator to almost any valve
bases and heating circuit manifolds on the market.
General
The actuator mechanism of the ABN-FBH actuator
uses a positive temperature coecient (PTC)
resistor heated element and a compression
spring. The expansion element is heated by
creating the operating voltage, which moves the
integrated piston. The force generated by the
movement is transferred to the valve piston and
thus opening or closing the valve.
The ABN-FHB actuator serves to ensure the
optimum control of valves on heating circuit
manifolds. Control is performed via a 2-point
room temperature regulator or by pulse width
modulation.
Performance features:
• Compact design, minimal dimensions
• 360° mounting position
• Patented protection for leaking valves
• Normally-closed (NC) and normally-open (NO)
designs available
• All-round function display
• First-open function (only for normally-closed)
• Maintenance-free
• Noiseless
• High functional safety and service life
• Low power consumption
• Plug-in assembly
• Valve adapter concept
• Adjustment control on valve
Function display
The function display (all-round display) on the
ABN-FBH actuator shows at a glance whether the
valve is open or closed.

Normally closed (valve closed)
In case of the normally closed version, the valve is
opened steadily by the piston’s movement upon
switching on the operating voltage and after
expiry of the dead time. Switching o the
operating voltage cools the expansion element.
After expiry of the dwell time, the valve is closed
evenly by the closing force of the compression
spring. The closing force of the compression spring
is matched to the closing force of the valves and
keeps the valve closed when de-energized.
Valve adapter concept
The valve adapter concept guarantees the perfect
adjustment of the actuator to almost any valve
bases and heating circuit manifolds on the
market. The ABN-FBH actuator is simply fastened
to the pre-installed valve adapter by plug-in
assembly.
In the NC version (normally closed) the function
display switches o when the valve opens.
In the NO version (normally open) the function
display switches o when the valve closes.
