TORONTO — Danfoss is pleased to announce the expansion of its highly successful AB-QM line of Pressure Independent Control Valves (PICVs). The expanded line includes a new 1½-inch and two-inch valve that offer maximum flows of 35 gpm and 55 gpm, respectively. Danfoss will soon announce an additional expansion of the line to include six-inch valves.
Danfoss AB-QM PIVCs combine a control valve with a differential pressure controller. The latter compensates or balances differential pressures in the circuit, so that the required volumetric flow always reaches the heat exchanger. This keeps the ambient temperature stable and the comfort level high, ensuring there is neither over-supply nor waste of energy, and operating costs are reduced.
With a wide range of actuators available, the Danfoss AB-QM valve can be used in all hydronic cooling and heating applications. The valve is the perfect choice for controlling terminal units such as fan coils, water-source heat pumps, chilled ceilings and air handling units.
“Danfoss has a strong focus on developing products that provide more precise control over room temperatures and contribute to reducing energy consumption,” said Lyle Moroz, vice president, Danfoss Heating. “We are quite proud of the AB-QM’s proven achievements in these areas, and we will continue to expand this product line.”
