Benefits of dynamic hydronic balancing
No need for complex hydronic calculations
Fast and easy product selection
Fewer components, less installation effort
Effortless commissioning
Automatic dynamic hydronic balancing
High comfort
Energy savings of up to 37 percent
Hydronic balancing with dynamic
valves
Using dynamic valves, such as PICV or
Intelligent Valves, in your HVAC system
the valves do the balancing for you.
There is no need for complex pressure
loss and control authority calculations.
Only the volumetric flow determines
which valve must be used. You also
don’t need any additional flow regulat-
ing or balancing valves, which means
less installation effort. On-site commis
-
sioning is extremely simple thanks to
easy max flow presetting and automat-
ic balancing. This is possible because
dynamic valves ensure balanced water
flow rates under all load conditions,
thereby eliminating any impact of
fluctuations on the room temperature.
This way, dynamic valves allow for
energy savings of up to 30 percent with
no sacrifice of comfort. With Intelligent
Valves you can even save up to 37
percent.
In other words: Dynamic balancing
is the right way to do hydronic bal-
ancing.
