Steel Valve for Convectors
in One-pipe Heating Systems
Application
Ordering and
Specifications
The steel valve is designed for welding into convectors by the manufacturer.
The complete valve consists of a steel valve body
and a large capacity valve insert with fixed flow
through the valve. The insert has connection for
all Danfoss RA 2000 thermostatic sensors.
The flow capacity of this valve is designed for
one-pipe heating systems.

regulation. As with any device which imposes a pressure drop in the system, noise may occur under certain
flow/pressure conditions. To ensure quiet operation, maximum pressure drop should not exceed 0.3 to
0.35 bar. The differential pressure can be reduced by the use of the Danfoss differential pressure regulators.
at 1 bar. kv = Q / √∆p. The kvs-value states the flow Q at a maximum lift, i.e. at fully open valve. If a remote
temperature adjuster is used, the P-band is increased by a factor of 1.1.

Mounting Instructions
Note!
Valve body and insert should always be handled
with utmost care. Keep in original packing until
final use. Any damage may result in malfunction
of the valve.

1. Lubricate valve insert by dipping in water. 2. Apply insert to housing and tighten by hand.
Be aware of the max. temperature, not to
destroy the o-ring when applying the insert.

4. To ensure closing measure of the valve, load
the spindle with a force of 30 N until stop,
and measure as shown.
A special tool for control is available.
5. A leak test has to be carried out according to
procedures stated by the convector manufacturer.
