When the spindle is moved out, the ontrol passage of the valve is losed. The nominal diameters DN 65 to DN 150 may only be used when employing the against the pressure losing proedure.

Closing against the pressure These ontrol valves are haraterised by their reliability and preision and make an important ontribution towards environmentally friendly regulation. They meet diffiult hallenges suh as the quiklosing funtion, overoming differential pressures and ontrolling medium temperatures, all with a low noise level. The valve spindle is automatially and firmly onneted to the atuator spindle. The stainless steel plug ontrols the equal-perentage flow rate in the ontrol passage. The tightness of the valve is ensured by the seat inorporated in the body. The stuffing box is maintenane-free. This onsists of a stainless steel body, two O-rings, a wiper ring and a grease reserve. This is free of silione grease, and silione oil may not be used for the spindle. Intended use This produt is only suitable for the purpose intended by the manufaturer, as desribed in the Desription of operation setion. All related produt douments must also be adhered to. Changing or onverting the produt is not admissible. Engineering and fitting notes The valves are ombined with the valve atuators without a spring return or with valve atuators with a spring return. The atuator is mounted diretly on the valve and fastened with srews. The atuator is onneted with the valve spindle automatially. When the system is ommissioned, the atuator moves out and the onnetor loses automatially when it reahes the lower valve seat. The stroke of the valve is also deteted by the atuator, and no further adjustments are required. Therefore the fore on the seat is always the same and the smallest amount of leakage is ensured. With the SUT atuators, the harateristi an be set to linear or quadrati as required.

Condensate, drops of water, et. must be prevented from entering the atuator. When installed horizontally, and with regard to the valve spindle, the admissible atuator or support weight, without strutural support, is max. 25 kg. When the atuator is mounted on the valve, make sure the plug is not twisted on the seat (this an damage the sealing surfae). When insulating the valve, it may only be insulated up to the onneting lip of the atuator. To inrease the funtional reliability of the valves, the system should onform to DIN/EN 14336 (heating systems in buildings). DIN/EN 14336 states, amongst other things, that the system has to be flushed through before being put into servie. Using with steam The valves an be used for low-pressure steam up to 115 C with the same p max values. When using the valve, make sure that it does not operate mainly on the lower third of its stroke range. This leads to an extremely high flow speed, whih greatly redues the servieable life of the valve. Right of amendment reserved 2015 Fr. Sauter AG 3.1 3/8
Using with water So that impurities are retained in the water (welding beads, rust partiles, et.) and the spindle seal is not damaged, we reommend installing olleting filters, for example one for eah floor or pipe run. Water requirements aording to VDI 2035. When using an additive in the water, the ompatibility of the materials must be heked with the manufaturer of the medium. The materials table shown below may be used. When glyol is used, we reommend using a onentration of between 20% and 55%. Other information regarding hydraulis and noise in systems The valves an be used in a low-noise environment. To prevent noise, the pressure differenes p max listed below should not be exeeded. The pressure differene p v is the maximum pressure that may at on the valve regardless of the stroke position, in order that the risk of avitation and erosion is limited. These values are irrespetive of the atuator fore. Cavitation aelerates wear and auses noises. To prevent avitation, the pressure differential on the valve should not exeed the value p krit : p krit = (p1 p v ) 0.5 p1 = upstream pressure before the valve (bar) p v = steam pressure at operating temperature (bar) The alulation works with absolute pressure. For the spring return, the stated p s values are also the permissible differential pressure up to whih the atuator an guarantee that the valve is losed in the event of an inident. Beause this is a quik-losing funtion with a fast stroke movement (using a spring), this value an exeed p max. 4/8 3.1 Right of amendment reserved 2015 Fr. Sauter AG

With this parameter, the valve is haraterised as a flow element with speifi hydrauli behaviour. Monitoring the avitation and erosion along with the assoiated noise inreases the servie life and the operational apaity. p max : Maximum admissible pressure differene over the valve at whih the atuator an reliably open and lose the valve. The following are onsidered: Stati pressure and flow effets. This value ensures trouble-free stroke movement and losing of the valve. The value p v of the valve is never exeeded. p s : Maximum admissible pressure differene over the valve in the event of a malfuntion (e.g. power failure, exessive temperature or pressure, pipe break) at whih the atuator an lose the valve tightly and, if neessary, maintain the full operating pressure against atmospheri pressure. Beause this is a safety funtion with a rapid stroke movement, p s an be greater than p max or p v. The disruptive flow effets that arise here are quikly passed through and are of minor importane in this mode of operation. For 3-way valves, the values only apply to the ontrol passage. p stat : Line pressure behind the valve. This essentially orresponds to the idle pressure when the pump is swithed off, aused for example by the fluid level in the system, inreased pressure due to pressure tanks, steam pressure, et. For valves that lose with pressure, the stati pressure plus the pump pressure are used. Disposal When disposing of the produt, observe the urrently appliable loal laws.
