Description / Application RAVV is a self-acting thermostatic element which can be combined with 2-way valve bodies RAV-/8, VMT-/8 or VMA 15. RAVV is used to control temperatures in small hot water cylinders and to control flow temperatures in central heating systems. There is a special version with a section of the capillary tube coiled up to function as minimum temperature sensor. This version can be used to control air heating coils. RAVV-RAV and RAVV-VMT - closes on rising sensor temperature - must be installed in the flow pipe - is dimensioned for pressure stage (PN) 10, max.120 C RAVV-VMA - closes on rising sensor temperature - must be installed in the flow pipe - is dimensioned for pressure stage (PN) 16, max.130 C Principles Hot water cylinder Air heating coil Ordering Setting Capillary tube Max.

Capillary tube gland Setting Relation between scale figures and closing temperature. The values given are approximate. Installation The valve body must be fitted in the flow pipe with the flow in direction of the cast-in arrow. The flow temperature must be min. 15 C higher than the set closing temperature. The sensor must be fitted in position from horizontal to vercally down. The sensor must always be placed in a pocket when the temperature is to be measured directly in a medium.

Sizing Example: Temperature control for hot water service Given Load: Cooling (flow - return): 20 C 14 kw (12000 kcal/h) Flow volume: 12 20 = 0.6 m 3 /h Differential pressure p across the valve: 0.12 bar Required Correct valve size Method From the flow volume (0.6 m 3 /h) and the differential pressure (0.12 bar) read off the necessary k v -value in the diagram = 1.75. In this example, a P-band of 6 C is required. From the k v -columns in the table, under 6 C, find the appropriate valve body. Here, the most suitable valve body is RAV 25/8 or VMT 25/8 with a k v -value of 1.6. 4 VD.52.O2.02 Danfoss 05/02 SIBC
