INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTION
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
AND AUTOMATIC BALANCING VALVE
FlowCon UniQ 15-20mm
Install the FlowCon UniQ as called for in the
design drawings. Although the performance of
the valve is not affected either way, industry
standards call for balancing devices to be installed on the downstream side of the terminal
unit. INSTALL THE VALVE WITH THE FLOW
DIRECTIONAL ARROW POINTING IN THE
CORRECT DIRECTION.
The FlowCon UniQ is available with fixed
20mm male ISO threaded connections fittable
for DN15 EuroCone according to EN215, Annex
A, i.e. figure 1.
FlowCon UniQ is similarly available with femaleby-female threaded connections DN15 or DN20,
i.e. figure 2.
Figure 1 Figure 2
For all threaded connections please clear threads
on both valve and piping of debris. Sealant such
as pipe dope or teflon
thread sealings.
WHEN USING HEMP AS PIPE SEALANT,
ENSURE NO STRANDS ARE LEFT IN THE
VALVE OR PIPING.
EuroCone fittings should seal with UniQ housing
without extra sealant.
tape is recommended on
Setting the valve:
The desired flow rate is chosen by adjusting the
valve (turned from setting 1.0 and up), with a
special designed key for a rough setting of the
valve (figure 3) or a large FlowCon adjustment
wheel for a micrometer setting (figure 4). There is
only one correct way to place the wheel on the
valve. Make sure there is no gap between the
wheel and the FlowCon UniQ.
Figure 3 Figure 4
The key or wheel are used to adjust the scale
on the top of the valve. Position is defined by
a “dot” marked on the edge of the housing top.
Once the correct flow rate has been selected,
the actuator can be applied. Please see specific installation instruction for selected actuator.
It is important to adjust the valve according to the setting needed BEFORE pressure
is applied to the system.
