    OPERATION/INSTALLATION – CORRECT PIPING

    2-way valves should be installed with the disc upstream. If installed with disc downstream, flow curve will be deeper. If installed “backwards” it is NOT necessary to
    remove and change. No damage or control problems will occur.
    3-WAY VALVES MUST BE PIPED CORRECTLY. They can be mixing or diverting. Mixing is the preferred piping arrangement.

    Diverting* (Not for use in change over applications)

    The BELIMO Characterized Control Valve is a CONTROL valve, not a manual valve adapted for actuation. The control port is the A-port. It is similar to the globe valve in that
    the middle port is the B or bypass port. The common port AB is on the main opposite the A-port. These diagrams are for typical applications only. Consult engineering
    specification and drawings for particular circumstances.
    REDUCED B-PORT FLOW
    Note: The B-port flow of the 3-way CCV is lower than that of the A-port. In most applications this is beneficial since the reduced flow compensates for the inexistent
    pressure drop across the coil in the bypass mode. Therefore, proper sizing is important to avoid flow noise in particular when the system is designed with constant
    speed pumps. Please refer to our valve sizing and selection guidelines.
    The flow velocity in the pipe upstream and downstream of the valve should be considered as well. The typical HVAC design maximum flow is 4 to 8 ft/s to avoid noise
    issues.
    Also, the pipe reduction factor must be considered and can be found on pages 3 and 4. Pipe reducers decrease the Cv value of a valve and consequently increase the
    pressure drop across the valve, a situation that could lead to noise or a lower than designed flow.
