For aluminium/bi-metal
segment radiators
The Danfoss flow director is designed to be
used with integrated valves type RA-N
013G1382 for incorporation into aluminium or
bi-metal segment radiators from different
radiator manufactures.
Aluminium and bi-metal segment radiators are
constructed by a series of elements, which are
joined together with nipples. The first segment
is used as inlet pipe, while return is through the
bottom of the second segment.
When integrated valves are used with segment
radiators, the flow needs to be directed
correctly through the valve to avoid noise
problems. This is made with the flow director.

Valve for flow directors
Valve type
For Danfoss RA
type sensors
1) The technical differential pressure indicates the upper limit for a proper valve function. In most twopipe systems the recommended differential pressure is sufficient. In order to achieve a noiseless
function we recommend in smaller systems to apply automatic bypass valves or automatic balancing
valves. If pump differential pressure exceeds the recommended max. valve differential pressure it is
recommended that an automatic balancing valve type ASV-P/PV is added to the system.

2) kv-values indicate the flow volume (Q) in m³/h at a pressure loss (Δp) across the valve of 1 bar ;
. At setting N, the kv-value in accordance with EN 215 can be stated as Xp = 2 K. At lower preset
values, Xp will be reduced until approximately Xp 0.5 at presetting 1. The kvs values indicate the valve
capacity, when the valve is fully open.
3) When using a liquid filled radiator thermostat e.g. RAW, RAS-D or remote setting element type RA
5060, Xp will be increased by factor 1.6 (at setting N, ref. EN 215).

Flow director 013G1523 and open nipple (upper
connection) 013G1506 is for radiators with RH
thread.
Flow director 013G1524 and open nipple (upper
connection) 013G1548 is for radiators with LH
thread.
Closed (lower connection) nipple can be either
013G1507 or 013G1549, depending on assembly
side.
