Two-way Cartridge Cage Valves
are intended for hydronic
applications in a normal indoor
environment to control the flow of
hot water or chilled water glycol
solution to 60% concentration.
These valves are designed for zone
control of heating/cooling systems,
or to control individual fan coil,
baseboard radiator or convector
applications. Depending on the
model selected they can be
controlled by SPST or SPDT two
position controller, tristate (floating), or modulating proportional
controller. For trouble-free operation of the product, good
installation practice must include initial system flushing,
chemical water treatment, and the use of a 50 micron (or finer)
system side stream filter(s). Remove all filters before flushing.
