Application Notes
IMPORTANT
Valve sizing is important for correct system operation. Undersized valves do not have sufficient
capacity at maximum load. Oversized valves do not
have sufficient authority over the load in modulating applications. Oversized valves can cause
excessive cycling and the seat and ball can be
damaged because of the restricted opening.
Proper Use
These valves are only for use in cold, warm and hot water
systems. Not suitable for oil, or combustible gases. For
water application, they are designed for a medium
temperature range from -22 to 250°F, at a maximum
pressure of 360 psi for 2-1/2" & 3" valves and 240 psi for
4", 5", & 6" valves. The valves are to be operated with the
appropriate Honeywell electronic actuators only. Water
should be properly filtered, treated and conditioned
according to local conditions and the recommendations of
the boiler or chiller manufacturers. The installation of a
strainers and filters is recommended.
IMPORTANT
The presence of excessive iron oxide (red rust) in
the system voids the valve warranty.
Required Torque
Honeywell electronic actuators can be utilized with the
VBF5011 and VBF5013 valves. See Table 4, which lists the
torque requirement for each valve size. See Table 5, which
lists the close-off pressure rating for the valves with the
different torque actuators. Larger torque actuators may be
used, but there is no increase in close-off pressure rating.
