Honeywell VRN2, VRN User Manual

VRN Pressure Independent Control Valves and Actuators

PRODUCT DATA

FEATURES

• Sizes from 1/2 to 3 in. with internal (female) NPT connections.

• Controls hot or chilled water with up to 50% glycol.

• Regulated flow rates available from 1 to 95 gpm.

• Differential pressure regulator for constant pressure drop across valve seat.

• Positive pressure, rolling diaphragm regulator design for flow control accuracy of ±5%.

• Equal percentage flow characteristic using patented flow control ball insert.

• Multiple maximum flow rates available per valve size.

• Patented ball seals for low operating torque.

• Nickel-chrome plated brass or stainless steel trim.

• Choice of factory-installed actuation using Honeywell MVN or MN/MS series direct coupled actuators: Floating, Modulating (2-10 V), Non-Spring

APPLICATION

The VRN2 two-way dynamic pressure-regulating control valves maintain constant flow of hot or chilled water with glycol solutions up to 50% in closed-loop heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems, within the specified pressure drop ranges of each model number. These valve assemblies can be ordered with or without factory-mounted actuators.

Return and Spring Return.

• Spring return actuators field-configurable for normally open or normally closed fail-safe position.

• Removable, manual operating handle to control valve during installation or in an event of power failure.

• Upstream Test Port for venting or pressure gauge attachment.

• Three actuator orientations on the valve for cramped spaces.

• Integral snubber eliminates effect of system pressure fluctuations and entrapped air while improving flow performance.
