V246HD1-001C Johnson Controls Water Valve

Overview

The Johnson Controls V246HD1-001C is a 2-way, pressure-actuated water-regulating valve designed for high-pressure refrigerants. It features a direct-acting control action to regulate water flow and control refrigerant head pressure in systems utilizing water-cooled condensers. As a Maritime model, it is specifically constructed to handle applications where the cooling media may be corrosive.

Features

• Pressure-balanced design that resists setpoint changes from sudden water pressure variations
• Take-apart construction allowing interior valve access without removal from the refrigeration system
• Accessible range spring for easy manual flushing
• Corrosion-resistant internal parts made of nickel-copper Monel for long valve life
• No close-fitting or sliding parts in water passages to ensure robust control in less than ideal conditions

Specifications

• Connection Size: 1 inch NPT screw
• Action Type: Direct Acting
• Construction Type: Maritime (Cast bronze body with Monel seat)
• Adjustable Opening Point Range: 200 to 400 psi (13.8 to 27.6 bar)
• Maximum Allowable Water Pressure: 150 psi (10.3 bar)
• Maximum Sensing Element Pressure: 630 psi (43.4 bar)
• Maximum Water Temperature: 170°F (77°C)
• Pressure Element: 1/4 inch External Flare Fitting (Style 5)

Applications

The V246HD1-001C valve is intended for regulating water flow to control refrigerant head pressure in systems with water-cooled condensers. It is designed for use with standard, non-corrosive high-pressure refrigerants, and its Maritime construction makes it suitable for marine environments or applications where the cooling water contains elements that are corrosive to standard commercial internal parts.
