VC2, VC4, VC60, VC8
On-Off Actuator for VC Series Balanced Hydronic Valves
These 2-position (open/close) control
actuators
are used with VCZ
1000, 1100, 6000 and 6100 series hydronic valves in a normal
indoor environment to provide quick opening/closing to control the
flow of hot and/or chilled water or glycol solution to 60% concentra
tion. They are designed for on-off "zone" control of heating/cooling
systems, or to control individual fan coil, baseboard radiator or
convector applications.
Depending on the model selected, the actuator can be controlled
by a low or line voltage SPST or SPDT controller, such as a room
thermostat, aquastat or flow switch.
VC80 series valve actuators are designed to be used with hard
wired electronic thermostats with series anticipator or power
stealing thermostats. Recommended control thermostats include
T8601D, T8401C, T8380 and T8360 families.
VC actuators use cam-operated cartridge travel to resist water
hammer. Internal limit switches prevent motor overrun. Some of
these actuators have conformally coated printed circuit boards for
humidity resistance.
