V46BB-2C Johnson Controls Water Regulating Valve

Overview

The Johnson Controls V46BB-2C is a direct-acting, pressure-actuated water-regulating valve specifically designed for Navy and maritime applications. It automatically modulates the flow of water or glycol in response to changes in system pressure, opening as pressure increases. To withstand the highly corrosive nature of salt water, the valve body is constructed from durable bronze, and all internal metal parts coming into contact with the water are made of nickel-copper (monel).

Features

• Direct-acting operation that opens on pressure increase
• Corrosion-resistant bronze body with monel internal components
• Smooth pressure modulation that minimizes chatter and water hammer
• Self-contained, non-electric operation
• Designed to withstand high hydraulic shock without damage
• Range spring remains isolated from the cooling water

Specifications

• Connection Size: 1/2 inch NPT / FPT
• Pressure Adjustment Range: 70 to 260 psig
• Maximum Permissible Water Pressure: 150 psig
• Capillary Length: 30 inches
• Pressure Connection: 1/4 inch sweat
• Body Material: Bronze
• Internal Material: Monel (Nickel-Copper)

Applications

• Regulating water or glycol flow to water-cooled condensers
• Maritime and Navy salt water cooling environments
• Commercial marine refrigeration systems
• Industrial HVAC applications involving corrosive coolants
