P. R2...P Two have become Range of Pressure-Independent Control alves one
The pressure-independent control valve R2 P sets new standards The challenge Energy savings with maximum convenience and low installation prices are requirements for the construction of new buildings and for renovations. Selecting the correct valves for the entire pipeline system and a professional hydraulic balancing costs money. alves are conventionally designed with a # n and the load. In the case of consumers (# 1) that are placed near the main pump, the differential pressure between the supply/ return pipes is much higher than at the end of the pipes (# n). With nominal volumetric flow, the necessary delivery height p p100 of the main pump depends on the selected pipe network (N and pipe lengths) and on the minimum differential pressure at the last consumer (pressure drop at the consumer and valve). P v 0,3 100 % P v 0,5 P v = 1 alve opening 0 100 % alve authority P v The solution # 1 Pressure diagram at full load The pressure difference p #1 consists of the pressure drop at consumer T #1, valve #1 and the balancing valve #1. The valve #1 is fully opened here. If valve#1 p #n T #n s a result of the consistent further development of the tried-and-tested Belimo characterized control valve, the valve design has been simplified with the new pressure-independent control valve R2...P. The flow rate is constant, even when the valve closes and the differential pressure increases. The valve authority is 1, even with overdimensional valve sizes. T #1 #n #1 p p100 p #1 The advantages Example: Office building with several floors valve authority of 0.5 and installed before each consumer (e.g. air heater, heat exchanger, supply controls). However, pressure conditions vary depending on the installation site of the consumer #1 closes, the differential pressure can increase up to p #1, the valve authority sinks markedly, and the flow quantity increases disproportionately. Hydraulic balancing is no longer necessary. Equipping a building becomes simpler, and only one valve per consumer is needed. Since no more balancing valves are needed and the hydraulic balancing is eliminated, it is possible to save costs while at the same time increasing convenience.

Principle of operation Cross-section of the pressure-independent control valve R2 P Simple direct mounting of the rotary actuator using a central screw, without shaft adapter Thermal decoupling of rotary actuator and control device Belimo characterizing disk for equal-percentage flow characteristic Pressure-reducing valve cone made of brass Identical mounting flange for all nominal widths, without lateral pressure on the stem ent window to prevent the accumulation of condensation Pressure-reducing cage made of elrin 500 Internal thread connection (BSP acc. to ISO 7/1) Stem with two 0-rings, blow-out proof Chrome-plated ball Forged fitting, nickelplated brass body Pressure-regulating diaphragm made of polyester-reinforced silicone Stainless spring (not visible) supports the pressureregulating diaphragm [] [B] Teflon seat with O-ring ensures leakage rate tight with low torque requirement Maintenance-free differential pressure measurement for the pressure-reducing valve Flow direction The characteristics The selection The corresponding drives The pressure-independent control valve R2...P contains two valves: the self-regulating pressure-reducing valve [] and the control valve [B] that works with equal percentage. When the differential pressure increases, the pressure-reducing valve closes and ensures a constant pressure over the control valve. This is necessary for the flow rate to remain constant ±5 % (at a differential pressure of 30 350 kpa) with the current opening position of the control valve. The range of motorized, pressure-independent control valves comprises a practical spectrum. ll valves are: 2-way valves in the most common nominal widths (N 15 50) esigned for a flow rate of 0.09l/s to 3.78 l/s Optimum functionality of the Belimo pressure-independent control valve is ensured by the corresponding motorization. epending on the application, the pressure-independent control valves are supplied with different rotary actuators. You can choose from the LR... and NR... rotary actuators. epending on the type, they can be controlled by a modulating or 3-point control system. 3
