Measuring points
Measuring point are self-sealed. Remove the cap and insert the probe through the seal.
Draining
Valves with draining for G1/2 or G3/4 hose connection. Valves without draining have a sleeve. This sleeve can temporarily be
removed and a draining kit is fitted, which is available as an accessory.
Sizing
When Δp and the design flow are known, use the formula to
calculate the Kv-value or use the diagram.

Measuring accuracy
The zero position is calibrated and must not be changed.
Deviation of flow at different settings
The curve (Fig. 4) is valid for valves with normal pipe fittings (Fig. 5). Try also to avoid mounting taps and pumps, immediately
before the valve.
The valve can be installed with the opposite flow direction. The specified flow details are also valid for this direction although
tolerances can be greater (maximum 5% more).

Correction factors
The flow calculations are valid for water (+20°C). For other liquids with approximately the same viscosity as water
(≤20 cSt = 3°E=100S.U.), it is only necessary to compensate for the specific density. However, at low temperatures, the
viscosity increases and laminar flow may occur in the valves. This causes a flow deviation that increases with small valves, low
settings and low differential pressures. Correction for this deviation can be made with the software TA Select or directly in TA’s
balancing instruments.
Setting
Setting of a valve for a particular pressure drop, e g corresponding to 2.3 turns on the graph, is carried out as follows:
1. Close the valve fully (Fig 1).
2. Open the valve 2.3 turns (Fig. 2).
3. Using a 3 mm Allen key, turn the inner spindle clockwise until stop.
4. The valve is now set.
To check the setting: Close the valve, the indicator shows 0.0. Open it to the stop position. The indicator then shows the set
value, in this case 2.3 (Fig. 2).
Diagrams showing the pressure drop for each valve size at different settings and flow rates are available to help determine the
correct valve size and pre-setting (pressure drop).
Four turns corresponds to fully opened valve (Fig. 3). Opening it further will not increase the capacity.
Fig. 1 Fig. 2 Fig. 3
Valve closed The valve is set at 2.3 Fully open valve
Diagram example
Wanted:
Presetting for DN 25 at a desired flow rate of 1,6 m3/h and a pressure drop of 10 kPa.
Solution:
Draw a straight line joining 1,6 m3/h and 10 kPa. This gives Kv=5. Now draw a horizontal line from Kv=5.
This intersects the bar for DN 25 which gives 2,35 turns.
NOTE:
If the flow rate is out of the scale in the diagram, the reading can be made as follows:
Starting with the example above, we get 10 kPa, Kv=5 and flow-rate 1.6 m3/h.
At 10 kPa and Kv=0,5 we get the flow-rate 0,16 m3/h, and at Kv=50, we get 16 m3/h. That is, for a given pressure drop, it is
possible to read 10 times or 0.1 times the flow and Kv-values.
