1 Safety Notes
2 Definition of
Application
Prior to assembly and
commissioning to avoid injury
of persons and damages of the
devices, it is absolutely
necessary to carefully read and
observe these instructions.
Necessary assembly, start-up, and maintenance
work must be performed only by qualified,
trained and authorized personnel.
Prior to assembly and maintenance work on the
controller, the system must be:
depressurized,
cooled down,
emptied and
cleaned.
Please comply with the instructions of the
system manufacturer or system operator.
The controller is used for flow rate limitation of
water for heating, district heating and cooling
systems.
The admissible medium temperatures depend
on the design and comprise 5 to 150 °C,
5 to 200 °C.
MAINTENANCE
FREE
The technical data on the rating plates determine
the use.

3 Description
3.1 Construction
(Flow Rate)
hrottling valve
3.2 Mode of Operation
The control unit consists of the PCV-VFQ21
valve unit, installed in the main pipe and AVP-F
installed as pilot controllers in the bypass. In the
bypass line, a throttle element is installed in front
of the pilot controller.
The controller keeps the differential pressure
across the main valve flow restrictor on a
constant level and restricts the flow rate to the
adjusted setpoints.
The valve and the pilot valves are pressurebalanced.
The setpoint for the flow rate limitation is
adjusted at the adjusting throttle of the valve
unit.
The valve unit in the main pipe is opening on
rising pressure. The pilot controller in the bypass
line is closing on rising pressure.
Throttling element DE
Valve unit PCV-VFQ 21
Throttling valve
Flow Rate Limitation
If the flow rate reaches the adjusted setpoint, the
differential pressure increases at the adjusting
throttle. This differential pressure acts on the
actuator AVP-F via the impulse tubes and the
valve AVP-F closes. Consequently, the valve of
the valve unit is throttled, too, and the flow rate
is restricted.

The static pressure p1 in front of the controller
must not fall below 1.5 bar (excess pressure).
Non-observance may lead to cavitation and
damages in the throttling element 1.
7.3 Filling the System
Note:
The controller 4 is closed when no pressure is
applied and only opens with a defined flow in the
bypass.
The pilot controller 5 is closing on rising pressure.

This procedure guarantees that there is no
overturn of the diaphragm in the valve and the
actuators.
To avoid too high pressure
differences on the controller,
observe the following sequence
when starting-up !
7.2 Leak and Pressure Tests
To avoid too high pressures at
the diaphragm actuators, the
following should be observed
prior to any pressure tests:
Actuator of valve unit:
The admissible operating excess pressure in the
actuator 2 is 25 bar 1). For higher pressures, you
must:
• Remove the impulse tubes 3 at the actuator
and close the connections with a stopper.
• Prior to any leak or pressure test, the
instructions in section 7.3 must be complied
with.
1. Open units 6 of the system.
2. Slowly open shut-off units in the supply flow 7
and the return flow 8.

7.4 Start-up
During starting-up the filled system, open the
units in the same sequence as described in
section 7.3.
VI.JA.G3.02

7.5 Putting out of operation
When putting the system out of operation, first
close the shut-off units in the supply flow and
then those of the return flow.
