Measuring points Measuring point are self-sealed. Remove the cap and insert the probe through the seal. Sizing When Δp and the design flow are known, use the formula to calculate the Kv-value or use the diagram. Measuring accuracy The handwheel zero position is calibrated and must not be changed. Deviation of flow at different settings The curve (Fig. ) holds for valves with the correct flow direction, straight pipe distances (Fig. ) and normal pipe fittings.

Correction factors The flow calculations are valid for water (+0 C). For other liquids with approximately the same viscosity as water ( 0 cst = E=0S.U.), it is only necessary to compensate for the specific density. However, at low temperatures, the viscosity increases and laminar flow may occur in the valves. This causes a flow deviation that increases with small valves, low settings and low differential pressures. Correction for this deviation can be made with the software TA Select or directly in TA s balancing instruments.

Setting It is possible to read the set value on the handwheel. The number of turns between the fully open and closed positions is: turns for DN 0-0, turns for DN -, turns for DN 00-0, turns for DN 00, 0 turns for DN 0 and turns for DN 00. Initial setting of a valve for a particular pressure drop, e g corresponding to. turns on the graph, is carried out as follows:. Close the valve fully (Fig ). Open the valve to. turns (Fig. ).. Using an Allen key, turn the inner spindle clockwise until the stop position.. The valve is now set. To check the setting of a valve, first close the valve, then open it to the stop position; the indicator then shows the presetting number, in this case. (Fig. ). Example DN Fig. Valve closed Fig. The valve is set at. Example DN 00 Fig. Valve closed Fig. The valve is set at.
Diagram example Wanted: Presetting for DN at a desired flow rate of. m /h and a pressure drop of 0 kpa. Solution: Draw a straight line joining. m /h and 0 kpa. This gives Kv=. Now draw a horizontal line from Kv=. This intersects the bar for DN at the desired presetting of. turns. NOTE: If the flow rate falls outside the scale in the diagram, the reading can be made as follows: Starting with the example above, we get 0 kpa, Kv = and flowrate. m /h. At 0 kpa and Kv = 0. we get the flow-rate 0. m /h, and at Kv = 0, we get m /h. That is, for a given pressure drop, it is possible to read times or 0. times the flow and Kv-values.
