The new X-tra Collection is a TRV specially designed for towel rails and designer radiators. Its new
and innovative self-sealing ½" valve to radiator
connection makes for a seemless, elegant and
easy installation.
The towel rails valve set includes a matching lockshield valve with drain-off function. The valves
and sensors are available in Chrome and Inox.
The valve set provides the perfect finishing touch
for towel rails. The aesthetically pleasing and
compact design allows the sensor to be mounted
underneath the towel rail, parallel with the wall,
avoiding the risk of accidentally knocking the
sensor.
Small to medium-sized convectors with valves
matching in colour or in contrast colours, is also
an interesting application for this series of valves.

¹⁾ The kv-value indicates the water flow (Q) in m³/h at a pressure
drop (Δp) across the valve of 1 bar; kv = Q: √Δp.
At setting N the kv-value is stated according to EN 215, at XP = 2K
i.e. the valve is closed at 2˚C higher room temperature.
At lower settings the XP value is reduced to 0.5K of the setting value 1.
The kvs-value states the flow Q at a maximum lift, i.e. at fully open
valve at setting N.

²⁾ The maximum differential pressure specified is the maximum
pressure at which the valves give satisfactory regulation.
As with any device which imposes a pressure drop in the system,
noise may occur under certain flow/pressure conditions.
The differential pressure can be reduced by the use of the Danfoss
differential pressure regulators.
setting markers scaled from 1 - 7 and N. Setting
values can be set quickly and precisely, without
the need for tools, as follows:
· Remove protective cap or sensor element
· Lift setting ring
· Turn anti-clockwise to the desired engraved
setting value
· Allow setting ring to spring back into position
The preset level can be selected in 0.5 increments
between 1 and 7 (see chart on page 3 for flow
rates).
At setting N the valve is fully open (flushing
option).

Valve presetting when using
RTX sensor. The sensor must be
ordered separately.
Due to the function of the RTX sensor its influence on the hydraulic balance of the heating
system is very limited. Consequently it is seldom
required to adjust the kv-setting of the valve from
the factory setting ”N”.

The self-sealing gland is mounting in radiator inlet and outlet using a 17 mm hexagonal key.
Valve and lockshield valve has matching design.
The yellow valve cap can temporarily be used to
open and shut the valve. The lockshield valve
features shut-off and draining facility.
All O-rings are of the EPDM-type which means no
mineral oils or grease are to be used.
