Flanged control valves
Flanged control valves are used to regulate the flow, pressure or temperature of the medium in the pipework of heating, cooling and air-conditioning systems. Unlike shut-off fittings, they are designed for smooth or automated control, often in combination with an actuator or controller.
The specific choice of control valve type depends on the required control range, the DN size and the method of operation (manual, electric, pneumatic) – the current offer and technical parameters can be found with the individual products.
Frequently asked questions
- How does a control valve differ from a standard shut-off valve? A control valve is designed for smooth regulation of flow or pressure, not just for fully opening or closing.
- Can the control valve be automated? Yes, usually in combination with an electric or pneumatic actuator and a controller.
- For which systems are control valves used? For heating, cooling and air-conditioning circuits where precise regulation of the medium's parameters is required.
