Balance Valves Feature Field-Adjusted Cartridges
Two new low flow automatic balance valves from Bell & Gossett feature a unique field adjusted cartridge that allows the user to select exact flows for specific applications. The Low Flow Circuit Sentry™ and the Low Flow Wye-Strainer are designed for automatic flow limiting style balancing of both HVAC cooling and heating circuits. Ideally suited for small coils that keep constant fluid flow, the Circuit Setter valve automatically compensates for fluctuating pressure conditions. Small and compact for tight spaces, the Circuit Setter valve features an integrated P/T port with space saving “T” handle shut-off, an optional P/T port for flow verification, and a union-ended tailpiece for quick installation and maintenance.
