At th e other end of the system, we hav e terminal units which transf orm that energy into warm or cool air. The amount of heating or cooling for each sp ace depends upon the load at any particular time and in that particular space. If left alone, th e hot or chilled water would distribute itself accord ing to the pipe fr iction and pumping eq uipment, but not according to load requirements. What is needed in a dev ice to bridge de gap between the incrementally sized pump ing and piping system and the __ individual flows to the production and terminal (space ) equipment. The hydronic. balancing valve is uniquely designed for this missi on, By accurately m easuring and precisely trimming flows, the balancing valves effectively match maximum load to required flow. Modern balancing valves allo w the system to function effi ciently as des igned and can verify flows, Since ho t water boilers, ch illers, coo ling towers, pumps, pipes, control valves and terminal units are incrementally sized, t he balancing valve is essential to match individual load/flow requirements to unit sized equipment. The unique design of each Flo fab balancing product offers the specifier, installer and owner the best features necessary to achieve accurate and efficient balancing of hydronic heating or cooling systems at lowest installed cost, Common features include : ~ Location of handwheel and test points on the same side for easy access ~ Location of test poin t on the end for even easier access ~ Easy to reorient digital / vernier handwheel - Self-sealing pressure / temperature test points use standard insertion probes to eliminating additional components ~ One valve for 5 fonctions : Throttling Measuring (pressure & temperature) Positive shutoff Draining Filling ~ Optional hose connection with ball valve for either test points (drain the pipe you want regardless of whether the valve is in the supply or retum piping) ~ Low minimum pressure drop (Y-pattern) ~ Precise throttling (globe style) ~ Minimum o f7 Oun ique handwheel positions Install valve in the supp ly or retum line — with flow in direction of arrow cast into budy Install horizontally, vertically or obliquely Install with handwheel up, down or the side Lowest inlet and outlet stra_ight pipe requirements with assured accuracy Rated for 235 psi (PN16) at 300°F (150°C) Dezincification resistant brass and bronze components Built-in hidden memory stop ensures return to balanced position after shutoff Enclosed red handwheel lock cap prevents Handwheel movement — easily defeated for authorized valve repositioning Optional preformed insulation speeds installation Thread and sweat connections for %4" - 2" sizes 125# flanges on 214" - 12" sizes Groove connections for 2%" - 12" sizes ELO-FAB SpecMieattons Seesieg levees ange | 2 w 50 CSOT) Tasetee Foor PEE ‘Nominal Omenion inehes em ‘grt | Handwbee = Sora [E-AToRe| aT isan nig ese 0 oc oo OR Derg Targertrefargs [ae SOF GOCE IE When maximum flow is known but a pressure drop through the balancing valve is unknown, select a balancing valve for a maximum pressure drop of 2 ft. wg (5.7 KPa) in the full open position as shown in the following tab.

Fittings, such as elbows and tees, disturb the nor mal flow profile which is es. tablished through straight pipe; pumps create even great er disturbances. Failure to allow water flows aroun d fittings and pumps to normalize can affect measuring a ccuracy by as much as 20% when the valve is in th e worst, fully open, position, Mi nimum lengths (diameters, D) of straight pipe before and afte r the balancing valve prevent t hese errors.

If the flow is less verify that itis within the range of the intended diversity. If flow is more than 20% above design, adjust discharge of pump to + 20% maximum, 2) Read Risers Read the flow of all risers and/or secondary pump loops to identify the riser/loop having the highest proportion of actual to design flow. This is the riser with the lowest installed pressure drop and will be the first balanced. Any fisers or secondary pump loops that are more than 20% above design flow should be adjusted to + 20% maximum. 3) Read branches on selected riser Read the flow of all branches on the selected riser to identify the branch having the highest proportion of flow. This is the branch with the lowest installed pressure drop and will be the first balanced. Any branches that are more than 20% above the design flow should be adjusted to + 20% maximum. 4) Read the units on selected branch Read the flow of all the units on the selected branch and select the unit having the lowest proportion of actual to design. This is the unit with the highest installed pressure drop and will remain open. 5) Adjust units to proportion of lowest Adjust the unit with the next lowest proportion of actual to design to match the proportion of the lowest unit. You should check back on the lowest unit (which becomes the reference unit), as it will increase when the next unit is adjusted. Adjust all other units on this branch to the same proportion as the reference unit with appropriate check-backs as required. Balance from the lowest proportion to the highest proportion until all units on branch are proportionally balanced. Readout all units to verity they are set at the same proportion, Bronch 6) Adjust units on all branches from lowest to highest ‘Tho next set of units balanced will be on the branch with the next lowest proportion of flow. Continue from lowest to highest, balancing all units on each branch of selacted riser using procedure in step 5. 7) Adjust branches to proportion of lowest riser now proportionally balanced (Repeat step 4 thru 7 for all risers) Find the branch with the lowest proportion (this branch will remain open), and then balance all the other branches to the reference branch. The riser is now proportionally balanced. Repeat step 4 thru 7 forall risers until the units and branches on, ‘each are proportionally balanced 8) Adjust risers to proportion of lowest ‘Select the riser with the lowest proportion (this riser will remain open). Set the next lowest riser to the same proportion as the reference riser and proceed unt al risers are proportionally balanced 9) Adjust head: 10 proportion of lowest If system has multiple headers, identity the one having the lowest proportion (leave open) and set the next lowest proportional header to match. Adjust each header accordingly. System is naw proportionally balanced and contains one ‘open flow path from headers to risers to branches to terminals having the lowest pressure drop possible. Readout all terminals and fine tune any out range devices, set memory stops, and record final readings. The final flow adjustment takes place et the pump and the method of achieving design flow is the subject of the section titled "Energy Efficiency In Balancing" 10) Adjust chillers to proportion of lowest 11) Adjust condensers to proportion of lowest 12) Adjust towers to proportion of lowest 13) Adjust flow at pump (Method described in * Energy Efficiency In Balancing’) Energy Efficiency In Balancing ‘The design flow rate may be obtained by throtting the pump, trimming the impeller, changing the pump or reducing the pump speed. The simplest and lest costly of these options isto throttle the pump, producing balanced design condition and ‘saving a few horsepower. I is also possible to operate the system at design low rate with actual system pressure drop. This ‘operation can be obtained by timing the pump impeller to approximately 10,6" or reducing the pump speed using a variable speed device. Trimming the pump impeller is the lowest cost method of obtaining this operating point, but once: trimmed, the impeller offers no capability of producing additional flow should condition warrant. A variable speed pump can match future load conditions, but imposes an additional penalty ofthe inefficiency of the drive on the system, thus making it 2 poor choice if this is all the drive is designed to accomplish, Systems having variable flow characteristics (modulating valves) can uflize variable speed drives to a substantial cost advantage taking into account the bulding diversity, ete, ENGINEERS TYPICAL ‘SPECIFICATION FOR BALANCING VALVES A General ‘Supply and install balancing valves as shown on the drawings and manufactured by Fio Fab or approved alternate All balancing valves supplied shall be by the same manufacturer. By definition, a balancing valve shall have the following capabilities: To adjust the water flow to the calculated values to ensure each terminal receives it’s design required flow of water. To act as a shut-off valve in order to save space and installation cost. This implies a tight shut-off feature and a mechanical memory of the valve setting for balancing purposes. To act as a diagnostic tool by checking the actual water flow in the plant and to detect pump ‘malfunctions, dirt in coils, ete.
