ACVATIX™ 3-port changeover ball valves, PN 40, with external thread VBG60..L For use in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning plants as changeover ball valve. In closed circuits. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● A6V11974394de 2020-12-21 Ball valve body made of brass CW602N (DZR) DN 20 kvs 8 m3/h Flat sealing, external threaded connections G..B, as per ISO 228-1 Fitting sets ALG.. with threaded connection Rotational angle 90° Can be combined with electromotorized rotary actuators GQD..9A, GMA..
Features ● ● ● Low cost: Optimized flow rates allow for selecting smaller ball valves. Low torque allows for combining them with small, less expensive rotary actuators. Long life expectancy: Maintenance-free construction due to low friction stem and polished ball made of chrome-plated DZR brass. Easy mounting: The actuators, premounted on the console, can be mounted on the ball valves without tools.

Applications with auxiliary functions A standard actuator with corresponding functionality can be used if a ball valve application requires a rotary actuator with auxiliary functions (e.g. auxiliary switch or potentiometer). In this case, mounting kit ASK77.. is required in addition to the rotary actuator. Follow the mounting instructions when mounting. Rotary actuator Options Order text: Mounting kit GMA..1E Potentiometer, auxiliary switch ASK77.2 Mounting set KV for GMAxx1.
Engineering We recommend installing the ball valve with spring return since temperatures are lower on heating plants which increases the lifespan of the sealing gland on the stem. Ensure there is no cavitation (see Section Technical design [➙ 2]). A filter must be installed upstream of the ball valve to increase functional safety. Permissible media Using a ball valve together with media based on potassium formate such as Hycool or Temper may result in leakage via stem to the outside.
Flow direction Make sure that the valve is mounted in the proper flow direction. A symbol is applied to the ball valve body: VBG60..
