Data sheet

Pilot-controlled differential pressure and flow
controller (PN 16, 25, 40)
PCVPQ - flow and return mounting, adjustable setting

Description

Pilot-controlled flow and differential pressure
controller is a self-acting differential pressure
controller primarily for use in district heating,
district cooling or in industrial systems as well. It
can be flow and return mounted in applications
with and without heat exchanger like large
substations and distribution stations.

The control function of the PCVPQ controller
is defined by the control function of the pilot
controller. Setting of flow is done on main
controler , setting of differential pressure is done
on the pilot controller.

Throttle valve data can be found on page 8.

PN 40 on special re quest

Features:

- Differential pressure and flow controller

- Extremely high control ratio (see Tab.1) as a
result of low pilot controller min. flow rate
(kVS value) and high flow rate (kVS) of the main
valve

- Small overall dimensions comparing to
standard design (especially height)

- Higher valve capacities for DN 150-250
comparing to standard design

- High control stability

- Smooth operation flow controller

- Water/glycolic water applications
