FLOWMATIC® Express - Connection and Regulation Kit for HVAC terminal units - NA Market

The compact pre-assembled kit connects VAV reheat boxes, fan-coils, chilled beams or ceiling-mounted terminal units with the main hydronic distribution system. It provides flow control, balancing, bypass, filtering and isolation functions for maintenance of the terminal unit and flushing of the system. The integral venturi with PT ports allows the kit to be sized to match the terminal unit design flow rate. It includes a preformed insulation jacket suitable for both heating and cooling applications. This kit also comes complete with a pressure independent control valve (PICV), three-way shutoff valves, integrated
bypass and filtering cartridge. Optional on/off or modulating actuators add automatic control for connection to a BAS.
