The V246 Series 2-Way Pressure-Actuated Water-Regulating Valves for High-Pressure Refrigerants come with direct-acting control action. V246 valves regulate water flow to control refrigerant head pressure in systems with water-cooled condensers.

The V246 Series valves are available in 3/8 in. to 2 in. sizes and have a maximum allowable water pressure of 150 psi (10.3 bar). Direct acting V246 valves have an adjustable opening point in a refrigerant pressure range of 200 psi to 400 psi (13.8 bar to 27.6 bar). You can use V246 valves with standard noncorrosive refrigerants.

Maritime models, which have nickel copper MONEL® internal parts, are available for applications where the media may be corrosive to the internal parts.
