Product Description
There are many uses for these compact, self-contained, automatic valves. Ambient sensing valves can be used to turn on steam, air, gas or liquids compatible with Teflon and stainless steel in response to temperature change. Applications include automation of steam trace lines, control of pneumatically operated pumps for injection of anti-freeze liquids, ambient sensing water line freeze protection, etc. They are also ideal for controlling steam heated drum heater enclosures and plate or panel coil tank heaters.
Operation
At the designated set point, a thermostatic element located at one end of the US/AR valve, will open or close completely over a 10°F (5.5°C) differential (i.e. 35-45°F, 90-100°F, etc.) and control the flow of steam, gas, or fluid through the valve based on ambient temperature.
Benefits
Simplifies winterization procedures
Reduces winterization maintenance and labor
Efficiently automates steam tracing
Eliminates wasted steam
No outside power required
Quick and easy installation
Design Features
Compact, low mass – Fast response
Corrosion resistant – Long service life
Exclusive Thermoloid® sensor/controller
All stainless steel construction
Ram-type plug for tight reliable shutoff
Narrow temperature band
Operating temperatures unaffected by pressure
Wide choice of set points
