HYDRONIC DUCTED FAN COIL UNITS  42NL & 42NH ■■ Two way balancing valve body New two-way valves with embedded balancing function technology are available as an option with 42NH and 42NL units. The Carrier two-way valve with balancing function combines the functionality of a dynamic balancing valve and a control valve in one product. They are available as an option with Carrier NTC and WTC controllers. The constant differential pressure across the control valve ensures accurate control and maximizes valve authority, independently of the pressure conditions in the system. Advantages versus standard two-way valve -- Improved and reliable commissioning. The water flow can be set and controlled on site. -- Higher energy efficiency due to optimal waterflow and maximized valve authority. -- Enhanced comfort thanks to stable and precise ambient temperature control. Features of the 3/4” two-way valves with balancing function for 42NL/NH sizes 2 and 3 -- 3/4” male BSP connection for union nuts -- Straight valve body with arrow indicating direction of flow embossed on valve body -- Nominal size DN 15 for 3/4’’ valve -- Nominal pressure: PN 16 bar -- Minimum operating differential pressure = 15 kPa at nominal flow. The dynamic balancing function maintains a constant differential pressure over the control valve. The control valve regulates the flow by means of a variable orifice which is controlled by the actuator. 3 : ΔP 1 1a M Features of the 1” two-way valves with balancing function for 42NL/NH sizes 3 and 4 -- 1” male BSP connection for union nuts -- Straight valve body with arrow indicating direction of flow embossed on valve body -- Nominal size DN 20 for 1’’ valve -- Nominal pressure: PN 16 bar -- Minimum operating differential pressure = 20 kPa at nominal flow. As a secondary option, two pressure points can be added to the valve body in order to measure precisely the waterflow during the commissioning and the maintenance stages. 1b AIR TREATMENT 2 Legend 1. 2. 3.
