AB-PM DN 40-100

AB-PM DN 40-100 is a combined differential pressure controller for dynamic hydronic balance.

•  The valve should be able to ensure hydronic balance for each zone with one or more terminal units.

•  Valve shall have flexible functionality as either DPCV or PIBCV.

•  The valve can be connected to either flow or return pipe via impulse tube

•  With impulse tube connected to flow, the valve should keep differential pressure across the 

branch by membrane driven controller. 

•  With impulse tube connected to the return, the valve should control the flow on every terminal unit

•  Valve should have shut-off function. 

•  Valve should have possibility to mount actuator without effecting presetting.

•  Valve should have variable setting. Setting value should allow to set a combination of needed 

differential pressure and flow for zone. 

•  Setting should be lockable to prevent unauthorized change. 

•  Control valve should have metal to metal sealing to ensure sufficient performance of differential 

pressure control at low flows. 

•  Shut-off service function should be possible to do with hand or a tool. The Dp controller should 

have soft sealing to ensure suficient closing in case of zero flow

•  Valve should be delivered with min. 2.5 m impulse tube. Diameter of impulse tube should not be 

bigger than 1.2 mm. 

•  Valve should be delivered in reliable packaging for safe transport and handling.

g) Setting range: Flow: 40-100%, Δp setting : 0-20 turns (DN40, DN50), 0-40 turns (DN65-DN100)

h) Nom. flow at  factory setting (Δpr 25 kPa): 5000l/h (DN40), 6500 l/h (DN50), 16800 l/h (DN65), 

19600 (DN80), 21000 (DN100)

i)  Minimum differential pressure across valve and zone at factory setting 45 kPa (DN40, DN50), 

60 kPa (DN65-100)
