V246GB1-001C Johnson Controls Water Valve

Overview

The Johnson Controls V246GB1-001C is a V246 Series 2-way pressure-actuated water-regulating valve designed for commercial applications using high-pressure refrigerants. It features a direct-acting control mechanism that automatically modulates the flow of condenser water in response to changes in refrigerant pressure, effectively controlling refrigerant head pressure in systems with water-cooled condensers.

Features

• No close fitting or sliding parts in water passages to ensure robust control in less than ideal conditions.
• Accessible range spring that allows for easy adjustments and manual flushing.
• Take-apart construction providing access to the valve interior without removing it from the refrigeration system.
• Pressure-balanced design that resists setpoint changes caused by sudden or gradual water pressure fluctuations.
• Corrosion-resistant internal parts that promote a longer valve life.

Specifications

• Valve Size: 1/2 inch
• Connection Type: NPT Threaded Screw
• Body Pattern: 2-Way
• Control Action: Direct Acting (opens on pressure increase)
• Opening Pressure Range: 200 to 400 psi (13.8 to 27.6 bar)
• Maximum Working Pressure: 630 psi
• Maximum Allowable Water Pressure: 150 psi (10.3 bar)
• Body Material: Cast Brass
• Pressure Element Style: 1/4 inch Male Flare (Style 5)

Applications

• Designed to regulate water flow to control refrigerant head pressure in refrigeration systems utilizing water-cooled condensers.
• Suitable for modulating the flow of conditioned water, sea water, or glycol within open or closed loops.
• Ideal for high-pressure refrigerant systems in commercial setups like high-rise buildings.
