Honeywell Ball Valve, 3 Way, 4 in. 197 Cv - VBF3J11S0A/M

The Honeywell 4 inch Ball Valve is a three-way system with a CV rating of 197. Crafted with a sturdy, cast iron body, the valve features a Teflon seat and a 316 Stainless Steel stem for robust performance and a high level of durability.

The valve comes with ANSI Class 125 flanged connections, making it suitable for various installation sizes ranging from 4 to 6 inches. It is designed with a removable manual operating handle, enabling control of the valve during the installation or during power failure scenarios.

A core feature of this valve is it's easily configurable for both normally open and normally closed fail-safe positions. Understanding the importance of adaptability in industrial settings, the valve comes with an optional NEMA 3R(IP54) rated enclosure, making it suitable for outdoor applications. Therefore, it can be installed in four different actuator mounting positions, demonstrating more versatility.

The valve with its wide CV range offers multiple choices, ranging from as low as 91 to as high as 650. To ensure proper flow regulation, it follows a globe valve A-B-AB flow pattern, providing efficient flow, particularly on side B port.

In terms of technical specifications, this valve is versatile in its service, being designed to handle hot and chilled water with glycol solutions of up to 50%. The flow characteristic of Port A to AB is an equal percentage, while Port B to AB has a linear characteristic with a 20% reduced flow capacity. It consistently operates within a temperature range of -22 F to 250 F (-30 C to 121 C) and demonstrates reliable performance with a close-off pressure of 70 psi.

In conclusion, the Honeywell 4 inch Ball Valve is a sophisticated and high-performing solution, ideal for varied industrial applications.
