V246GA1-001C Johnson Controls Water Valve

Overview

The Johnson Controls V246GA1-001C is a 2-way, pressure-actuated water-regulating valve designed for systems using high-pressure refrigerants with water-cooled condensers. It modulates the flow of water to effectively control and maintain optimal refrigerant head pressure.

Features

• Pressure-balanced design resists changes to setpoints caused by sudden water pressure fluctuations
• No close-fitting or sliding parts in water passages to ensure robust control in less-than-ideal conditions
• Take-apart construction allows access to the valve interior without removing it from the refrigeration system
• Accessible range spring permits easy manual flushing
• Constructed with corrosion-resistant internal materials to promote long valve life

Specifications

• Connection Size: 3/8 inch NPT threaded
• Body Pattern: 2-way, direct-acting commercial service
• Opening Point Adjustment Range: 200 to 400 psi (13.8 to 27.6 bar)
• Maximum Working Pressure: 630 psi (43.4 bar)
• Maximum Water Pressure: 150 psi (10.3 bar)
• Media Compatibility: Water, glycol/water solutions, or liquids with low freezing points (not compatible with ammonia R717)

Applications

• Commercial and industrial cooling systems requiring reliable head pressure control
• Refrigeration systems utilizing water-cooled condensers
• Systems requiring modulating water flow based on direct refrigerant circuit pressure changes
