Control valves are initially classifiedby their place of use into residential,commercial or industrial. Thedifference being not only pipe sizeand pressure ratings but also the typeof actuator and complexity of thecontrol circuit required. Industrialvalves frequently are equipped withpneumatic actuators while residentialunits are virtually all supplied withelectric. Ball and gate-type valvesare available primarily in smallerpipe sizes while butterfly valves aretypically applied only on the largestpipes. Globe valves are the mostwidely used type with a wideavailability in virtually all thecommercial and residential pipe sizesand adaptability to most actuators.
A further classification is the methodof attaching the valve to the pipe.Threaded valves are available from1/2 to 6 inches (1.3 to 15.2 cm) thoughmost of them larger than 3 inches(7.6 cm) are flanged. The smaller unitsare generally designed to be usedwith the copper piping used inresidences and small commercialbuildings. These can either besoldered, sometimes referrred to assweat, or flare which is a method ofattaching to a copper or steel pipeby turning a nut that tightens anenlarged section of pipe around thevalve body. Each method is rated fora certain amount of loop pressureand weight support. The type ofvalve connection method should beindicated in the mechanicalspecifications.

The conventional method to control acommercial damper or valve withelectric or electronic actuators has beento use a three-piece assembly:
1. Actuator2. Linkage3. Valve or damper
Today there is a new type of actuatorthat is compact, economical and inmany applications requires nolinkages. Savings in both installationlabor and material costs are realized.
Actuators are devices that are used totake a control signal and reposition afinal control element such as a valve ordamper. This causes an increase ordecrease in the volume of air, steam, hotor chilled water. The actuator is seldoman integral component of the valve ordamper. Instead actuators with varioustypes of power supplies and controlinputs are available. This results ingreater flexibility for the installer andreduced inventory requirements for thebuilding owner.
Actuators are used in virtually everyaspect of heating, ventilating and airconditioning (HVAC). Many of themare shown in the illustration on the nextpage “Direct Coupled Actuator Usage
in a 5 Story Building.”
An airhandler frequently requiresmultiple actuators. Though a smallerunit can be controlled with a singleactuator that is linked to both the returnand outside air dampers, larger,centralized airhandlers might requireten or more actuators just for theoutside air. Multiple damper sectionscan be joined together, connected to ajackshaft and controlled with a singlelarge actuator.
Heating and cooling coils are virtuallyalways equipped with control valves.Some coils are sufficiently large torequire multiple valves which aresequenced according to outside orsupply air temperature. Changeoverfrom heating to cooling or from oneboiler or chiller to a backup unittypically requires large two-positionvalves. Butterfly valves are frequentlyused for this function.
Most office building HVAC equipmenttoday is based on variable air volume(VAV). Modulation of the volume of airfrom the supply and return fans isrequired and there are many methods inuse. Illustrated on the next page is a
widely used method; inlet vanedampers on the supply fan. This isfrequently a medium to high torqueapplication. In a typical application theairhandler should not be started untilthe inlet vanes are full closed. This isdone to prevent damage to the ductscaused by a excessive static pressure.This requires either an inlet vaneactuator that is spring returned to aclosed position or an electrical interlockcircuit that prevents fan start-up till thevanes are closed.
The VAV boxes located throughout thebuilding might require multipleactuators on each; one for the volumedamper and one for the reheat coil.Dual duct VAV boxes could require twovolume damper actuators each.
Other applications for actuators includevalves for make-up water on coolingtowers, diverting valves for condensorwater lines, modulation of dampers onsmaller cooling towers, pressureregulating valves for primary-secondaryhydronic loops or control valves onsteam-to-hot water converters.

Packing is used to preventwater or steam from leakingout around the stem. It can bemade of teflon wafers or arubber cartridge. The packingon this valve consists ofseveral wafers. At one timepacking was made of a ropecovered with graphite. Thepacking nut had to be tightenedevery so often to reduceleakage. Newer designscommonly used on ball valvesare 0-rings made with moderncompounds which substantiallyreduces or eliminatesrepacking.
The term valve trim refers toall of the components of thevalve except the valve bodyitself that are in contact withthe fluid being controlled. Inspecifications the trim mightrequired to be of a specialmaterial such as stainless steelto withstand high temperaturesor corrosive substances.
On larger valves the seat isthreaded into the valve body. Ifreplacement is required it canbe removed with a deep socketand replaced. On most of thesmaller and soldered valves theseat is molded into the valvebody and is not replaceable. Itcan still be serviced byscraping or grinding scaledeposits.

Valves are available as unitary orassembled units. The difference is that aunitary valve is designed to be used witha specific actuator. Unitary valves aretypically smaller valves. An assembledunit consists of one of Honeywell’sthreaded or flanged valves and one of awide selection of actuators. The actuatorcan be electric or pneumatic, spring returnor non-spring return or one of any of theavailable close-off ratings.
When selecting an actuator for anassembled unit there are some criteria thathave to be met. The stem diameter andlift both generally increase as the pipe sizeof the valve increases. Actuators areavailable with various stem lifts to meetthese requirements. Lift on commercialglobe valves such as those illustrated aboveare typically 3/4 inch (19 mm) on thosevalves 3 inch (76 mm) or less pipe size and1.5 inch (38 mm) on 4 to 6 inch (102 to 152
mm) valves.
FULL UPFULL DOWNSTEM LIFT
SERVICE NOTE: The stem lift can beadjusted slightly by threading the stem buttomupwards or downwards. It is then locked inposition with a setscrew that is installed fromthe top. If the stem button is not adjustedcorrectly the rated close-off or Cv might notbe attained with some of the actuators. Onsome valves it is adjusted with the stem fullup and some with the stem full downwards.When installing an actuator on this type ofvalve be certain to measure the dimensionindicated and compare to what isrecommended in the literature.

The plug of the valve is attachedto the stem and is used to openor close the port in the seat. Theone illustrated on top is mostoften used on the smaller valvessince there are no guides or skirtsattached to the plug assembly.The stem must be sufficient toovercome side-to-side forces.
The plug illustrated in the middleis equipped with guides or skirtsto maintain plug alignment as itis raised or lowered. Theseguides are necessary on largervalves since the stem is longerand might be bent or pushedagainst the packing withexcessive force.
Both of the top two plugs on thispage are constructed with discsthat are used to make a tight sealwith the seat to prevent leakthrough. Twenty years ago theseseats were made of a fibermater ia l re ferred to ascomposition, a rubber materialfor chilled water or metal fortight close-off with steam. Thenthe discs were changed to bemade primarily of teflon ormetal.
The three-way valve plugillustrated on the bottom is madewithout discs. Two seatingsurfaces are built into the plugassembly.

There are two primary types of plugs for globevalves. The one with straight sides is referred toas a linear plug and is used for modulating steamor chilled water. The other with the sloping sidesis referred to as an equal percentage plug and isdesigned for modulation of hot water or two-position control of steam. It is equal percentagebecause each percentage of stem lift results in anequal percentage increase in heat output.
Some of the larger valves use a plug with guidesor skirts on the side to keep it aligned with theseat as the valve is opened and closed. The shapeof the sides of the plug and the guides make theplug linear or equal percentage and it is not visiblyapparent which type it is.

An increase of the volume of steam beingput into a coil results in a proportionalincrease in the heat output of the coil. Thishappens because all of the steam shouldcondense in the coil and be returned to thecondensate return tank. Hot or chilled wateris different because the coil outlet watertemperature varies with the flow rate andthe amount of airflow over the coil. As theflow increases so does the velocity of thewater in the coil and the length of time itis in contact with the coil decreases. Eachvolume of water absorbs less heat as the
flow rate increases. What can occur if thevalve plug is not designed to take this intoaccount is illustrated above. Neither barchart is proportional. Changes in the coiloutlet temperature changes the heat outputdisproportionately.
An equal percentage plug is contoured sothat a 50% repositioning of the stem onlyraises the flow rate by 10%. This 10%increase in flow however causes a 50%increase in heat output.

QUICK OPENING PLUG
MODIFIED LINEAR
DISC IS JUST A FLAT PIECE. THERE ISFULL FLOW ALMOST IMMEDIATELYAFTER OPENING.
In the Honeywell Valve Selection Guide63-8038 valves are listed with the optionsavailable for each. Some of them arelisted with a plug referred to as amodified linear. This is a plug that isprimarily linear for approximately 90%of the stem lift. 10% is curved similar toan equal percentage plug to improvemodulation at low flow rates. Most valvesusing this plug are metal-to-metal seatingand are primarily for steam modulation.
Double seated or pressure balancedvalves are used where fluid pressuresare too high to permit a single seatedvalve to close. They do not provide tightshut-off and are more costly than singleseated valves.
Quick-opening plugs are for two-positionapplications. The plug is designed to seattightly and open completely within thefirst portion of stem lift.

LOSE VALVES
The flow of liquids or steam through avalve port and the intrinsic changes ofdirection produce many hydraulic forcesthat can push a plug off the seat or the stemfrom side to side. At its worst these forcescan cause chattering which is a rapid andcyclical opening and closing of the valvewhen it is in a low flow position. Rapidclosing of a valve can cause a hydraulicramming of the pipe referred to as wateror steam hammer. This results from asudden rush of fluid against a stationaryobject. An audible manifestation of thiscan be a knocking noise that reverberatesthroughout the entire building. Damage tostrainers, coils, pipe connections, supportsand steam traps can also result from wateror steam hammer.
The designer of mechanical equipmentattempts to use a consistent flow of fluidat the correct pressure drops to minimizenoise and damage. A valve for a coil on anairhandler or converter is frequentlyspecified as stem-down-to-close or stem-down-to-open to meet the designer’srequirements. While it is feasible to matchthe same control output with a differentvalve and actuator assembly there can beunintended results if the position of thestem is not kept in mind. Honeywellproduces valves in virtually anyconfiguration required for commercialapplications. It is important for the personselecting retrofit valves to ensureconsistency with the previously installedequipment.

NORMALLY OPEN AND NORMALLY CLOSED VALVE ASSEMBLIES
Normally open and normally closed areterms that refer to the position of an actuatorand valve or actuator and damper assemblywhen the power is removed. Coils areprevented from freezing in an airhandlerif the coil has full flow through it duringthe off cycle. Similarly a reheat coil on avariable air volume box does not requirefreeze prevention and the actuator shouldbe closed if there is no airflow to preventtripping plenum heat detectors.
A valve by itself is seldom normally openor normally closed. It is the actuator andvalve assembly that provides thisfunctionality. Illustrated above is the samestem-down-to-close valve with twodifferent actuators installed. One assembly
will open when air pressure is removedand one will close. The use of a stem-down-to-open valve with the same twoactuators illustrated above would reversethe normal positions of both valveassemblies.
Electric actuators with spring return providesimilar benefits as the pneumatic. On someunits the direction of actuator spring returnmust be matched to the type of valve tohave the correct normal position on lossof power. There is also battery-powered orelectric return available for some non-spring return valve actuators. These aregenerally higher torque than spring return.The battery is recharged during the oncycle.

These are the same two actuators as on theprevious page. The valve however is stem-down-to-open which reverses the normalposition of the two assemblies.
Generally the close-off rating will be higheron the assemblies using the stem-down-to-close valves on the previous page. Of thosetwo the normally open unit would be ratedhigher than the normally closed.
The difference in close-off is due to theforce of the water or steam flow pushingthe plug off the seat on both of the assemblieson this page. The force of the water flow
has the opposite effect on the valves withstem-down-to-close.
Additionally the valves with the force ofthe actuator closing the valve will have ahigher close-off rating than the ones closedwith the spring. This would be the normallyopen units on both pages. This is due to therequirement of most actuators that the forceof the actuator has to overcome that of thespring to be able to provide modulation.This does not apply to some of the newerelectric actuators since the spring return isfully wound and locked during modulationand is not opposed by the motor.

Most modern buildings are heated with hotwater boilers. Facilities constructed priorto 1940 were probably heated with steam.Additions to these buildings are typicallyhot water heat due to its controllability,safety and maintenenace benefits. The useof a steam-to-hot-water converter permitsretaining the steam boiler while heatingnew areas of the building with hot water.Other facilities such as hospitals andindustrial facilities often require the
availability of steam for humidification andother applications.
The valve on a converter is typicallynormally closed to prevent boiling of thewater when the pump is turned off. A linearplug should be used on the valve to preventexcessive cycling. Except for the valve thecontrol devices are identical to those forhot water reset with a three-way mixingvalve.

THREE-WAY VALVES
Three-way valves are primarily used forwater applications and infrequently to switchcompressed air. It is typically open to oneport or the other. There are smaller three-way valves which sequence ports and can beclosed or open to both ports simultaneously.Most of the larger valves though, are of thetype illustrated here and would be labelled"Normally Open A to AB", or "NormallyOpen AB to B."
A diverting valve is also a three-way valve.Typically used to bypass a coil and/or reducewater pressure in a hydronic loop. They arefrequently applied on a cooling tower toeither send water to the cooling tower or tothe bypass line.
There is constant flow in gallons per minute(liters per second) through three-way valves.
This facilitates the design of the pipingequipment for a building since the pumppressures and the loop pressure drops willremain virtually constant. The cost ofpumping the water throughout the buildingremains constant also.
Using a two-way valve on a coil causes theloop pressures to change as it is closed. If asufficient number of two-way valves in abuilding are simultaneously closed thepressures on the pump can become excessive.This can cause opening of safety valves andhigh water pressures that push valve plugsoff the seats. A solution is to install pumpspeed controls that reduce loop pressure whenneeded. Since this results in a reduction inpumping costs it is frequently being used inmodern buildings and three-way valves arebeing used less often.

Mixing valves are used to take two input flowsof water and mix them into the outlet port. Theyare used on coils in airhandlers, hot water loopswith a boiler and reheat coils. The larger thepipe size the more probable the valve will beconstructed with a guides on the plug similarto the one illustrated above.

The water used to heat a building is typicallysupplied from either a boiler or a steam-to-hot water converter. The buildingillustrated here is heated from a boiler. Thetemperature of the water should be variedinversely with the outdoor air temperature.This is referred to as hot water reset and itreduces overheating during moderateweather. The required temperatures arelisted in the reset schedule.
Most boilers though should have a constanttemperature water within them to preventthermal stratification and warping of themetal. A three-way mixing valve can beused to vary the loop temperature whilekeeping the boiler temperature constant.The valve can also be used during a coldstart to prevent potentially damaging largeflows of cold return water through the boiler.

COOLING TOWER APPLICATION OF DIVERTING VALVE
Chillers are used to generate chilled waterto cool a building. While some of these arepaired with air cooled condensors most ofthe larger units are connected to coolingtowers. Cooling towers are used to dissipatethe heat taken from inside of the building tothe outdoors. A valve is generally requiredto control the temperature of the condensorwater being returned to the chiller.
A sensor is installed on the return condensorwater line and it is used with the controllerto modulate the three way diverting valve.If the condensor water is below 70 Deg. F.(21 C) the valve is opened AB to B and it is
sent back to the chiller without being cooledin the tower. This is done to prevent oil andrefrigeration migration within the chiller. Asthe chiller capacity is increased and thecondensor water temperature increases above70 Deg. F. (21 C) the diverting valve ismodulated towards opening AB to A.
A separate control loop is used to modulatethe amount of cooling done within the coolingtower. The water is controlled to a typicalsetpoint of 75 Deg. F. (24 C) by turning thetower fans on and off, controlling the fanspeed or modulating dampers on the sides.

Butterfly valves are applied on gases andliquids. They are used in conjunction withsafety shut-off valves on natural gas burnersto modulate the capacity of the boiler.Generally this type of valve does not providea tight close-off unless the valve body isconstructed with special seals. They are usedcommercially primarily on larger pipe sizesto provide modulation or two-position controlof water. The type of actuator varies with thetorque requirements. Multiple damper actuatorscan used on a single larger valve. Standardelectric or pneumatic actuators are availablefor smaller valve sizes.

Gate valves are widely usedfor manual shut-off on largerpipe size applications andfor modulation of smallerwater volumes. The close-off rating is very high so thismakes them useful forstopping all flow to servicemechanical equipment.
A form of the gate valve usedfor temperature control isthis cartridge valve. They areavailable as two- or three-way valves.

There are two primary types of valveservicing procedures: repack and rebuild.A rebuild is a more complete procedureand includes the entire repack procedure.Repacking is done more frequently anddone equally as often on steam and hotwater. Rebuild is done more frequently onsteam valves.
The need for repacking is readily apparentdue to leakage of water or steam fromaround the valve stem. As the waterevaporates scale is typically left behind.The actuator and stem button must be
removed first. Then the packing nut isremoved and the packing wafers are takenout.
In the repack kit there is a diagram withthe correct number and location of thecomponents. There are many variations.Some wafers are installed with the openside up and others with the open side down.The number of wafers varies from valveto valve. Spacers are required on someunits. There are some valves for which thepacking is encased pre-assembled in a steelcup.

LEAKAGETHROUGHVALVE WHENIT IS CLOSED
VALVE LEAK THROUGH
A valve should not leaksubstantially when closed if itsrated close-off pressure is notexceeded. As the force of fluidthrough the port and around thedisc begins to wear on thecomponents there is a gradualincrease in leakage through thevalve when closed. This leakageis virtually always detrimentalsince it causes additional wear onthe seat and results in higherheating or cooling costs in manycases. If there are holes in thestrainers and corrosion in thepiping pieces of scale can bedeposited on the seat causingadditional leakage. In the earlydays of control maintenance valveseats were cleaned or ground toeliminate the effects of wear.
Today on most valves the seat isreplaced instead. It is typicallyremoved with a standard deep sixpoint socket. On some valves theseat is larger in diameter than thebonnet thereby eliminating theuse of a socket. For these valves
LEAKAGE CAN BEDETECTED BY THETEMPERATURE OF THEOUTLET PIPE OR BY THENOISE OF FLOW.

CV AND FLOW RATES THROUGH VALVE PORTS
Much of the calculations of sizing andselecting a control valve might be doneby the designer of the mechanicalequipment. The flow rate, normalposition of the assembly or pipe sizemight be listed on the mechanicalspecifications. Other designers mightleave it totally to the control companyand only specify a heating or coolingoutput given in BTUH or KWH.Honeywell provides information onvalve sizing in the Engineering Manualof Automatic Control for CommercialBuildings. An automated method is alsoavailable as software for desktoppersonal computers, Valve Sizing andSelection Software form number 63-8558.
Regardless of the method used there arecertain principles applicable to valvesizing. First, the pipe size is seldom anindication of the required flow throughthe valve. Heating or cooling coils thatvary in size by 200% might all beconnected to the same diameter pipe.Secondly, a valve that is a certain pipesize is typically available with manydifferent flow capacities or Cv’s.Selecting the highest Cv will result in
oversized valves in most applications.An oversized control valve frequentlywill result in inadequate modulation andaccelerated valve component wear. Thisis due to forcing the valve plug and diskinto a minimum flow position, perhaps10 or 20% of rated flow, for excessivelengths of time to compensate for theoversized port. A correctly sized valvewould be at the low flow position onlyduring moderate weather. Consistentlyforcing a plug to a near closed positionincreases the probability of seat erosiondue to the increased fluid velocity. Thisis referred to as wire drawing of a valveseat and is common on steam valves.
The preferred solution is to select andsize control valves based on the requiredflow or Cv. A Cv of 1.0 is equal to onegallon per minute with a one PSI pressuredrop through the valve. The metricequivalent is Kv represented by theformula Kv = 0.865 Cv. A valve with aCv of 10 is ten times larger in capacitythan that of a valve with a Cv of 1. Cvfor steam is based on steam quantity inpounds (kg) per hour, specific volumeand superheat of steam.

PIPING AND FLUID MAINTENANCE
Selecting the correct Cv or port size fora control valve is only one componentof a correctly functioning installation.Whether new construction or retrofitthe installation of a control valve effectsthe fluid flow throughout the pipingloop. All of the cutting oils, greases andchemical compounds should beremoved after making any modificationto a heating or cooling loop. This isdone by adding a cleaning compoundto the lines and circulating the mixture,sometimes with the boiler at maximumheat, for a certain length of time. Theloop is drained, refilled and drainedagain. If the water appears clear then itis refilled and all air is removed.
Anticorrosion chemicals should beadded at the correct concentration atthis time. Omitting the cleaning of thelines or the addition of anticorrosionchemicals can coat the inside of thepipes, strainers and coils with a layerof insulation in the form of a greasyslime or corrosion. Studies indicate acoating as thin as 1/8 inch (.3 cm) canreduce output of some coils by 10 to20%. Many a control valve or coil hasbeen needlessly replaced when theactual cause of insufficient heating orcooling output was the reduction ofheat exchange efficiency due toinadequately cleaned or maintainedpiping.

CORROSION, WATER BALANCE AND CONTROL VALVES
The flow rate in gpm, pressure dropand normal position of the valveassembly are typically specified by themechanical designer. Every length ofpipe, manual or balancing valve,automatic valve, coil and pumpconnection is taken into account todesign the piping loop and calculatethe pressure drops. A factor is added tothe calculations to account for unknowninstallation requirements and thegradual degradation of the piping overyears of usage since most heating andcooling equipment is rated for 40 years.
Since the combination of oxygen andwater is one of the most corrosivesubstances on earth many buildings canbe subjected to flow degradation inexcess of acceptable limits in a fewyears. This changes the velocity of thewater flow through the pipes. It can becompared to a river when the width isnarrowed and the velocity of the water
is increased. If the distance betweenthe banks is widened the velocity slows.Obstructions in the piping due to slime,corrosion, scale or broken componentscan narrow the pipe diameter raisingthe velocity. The result is noise,vibration, water hammer, valve damageand decreased controllability of fluidflows.
The solution is maintaining chemicalsin the loop and having fluid flowschecked on a regular basis by aprofessional water balance technicianwith records kept of all results.
Glycol usage as a freeze avoidancemeasure is a factor in valvemaintenance. Concentration andcorrosion inhibitor levels must bechecked on a regular basis. Excessglycol levels can cause valve stem andpump seal leakage. All components ofthe piping must be rated for glycol.

Most actuators can be classified by whatoccurs to them when power is removed.Non-spring return devices will remain at theposition they were in when the electricity orair pressure is removed. Spring returnactuators will automatically be driven fullyto one full position or the other. This istypically done on an airhandler to open theheating coil valve and close the cooling valvewhenever the fan is turned off. This preventsfreezing either coil during cold weather andunnecessary cooling, dehumidification andpump horsepower during warm weather. Thevalve assembly is referred to as beingnormally open or normally closed. Thenormal position is that which occurs whenpower is removed. This is frequently denotedon mechanical or control drawings by makingthe abbreviation “N.O.” or “N.C.” next tothe symbol for the control device.
A valve body by itself is typically not
normally closed or normally open. Only theinstallation of a spring return actuator givesthe damper or valve assembly a normalposition. Smaller unitary valves with integralactuators are an exception to this.
A wound spring is the typical method ofpositioning an actuator when the power isremoved. Generally spring return actuatorsare lower torque than non-spring returndevices. Honeywell 50 lb-in (6 N-m) actuatorsare equipped with a unique circuit that windsthe spring and locks it into position prior tostarting the actuator. The inactive spring isfully wound and available to provide springreturn at all times with no load on the actuatormotor. Pneumatic actuators are virtually allspring return. They are generally of a highertorque rating than electric units. The springreturn must be sufficient to close the valveagainst the pressure flowing inside the pipe.

The most fundamental of control categoriesis 2-position or modulation. This indicatesthat the final control element is either fullopen or full closed with no intermediatepositions. Most of these will use thermostatsor controllers with single-pole-single-throw(SPST) or single-pole-double-throw (SPDT)switching. While this may appear to be alimited form of control it is adequate formany slow changing environments such asa room thermostat controlling a baseboardelectric heater.
Series 40, 80 and sometimes Series 60 are 2-position.
Modulation, also referred to as proportional,
has many more output positions for theactuator other than just open or closed. Thetotal number of output positions is dependentupon the resolution of the control equipment.Typically the actuator is half open if theambient temperature or humidity matchesthe setpoint of the controller. Modulationis preferable for most applications since itis feasible to more closely match the outputof the controlled equipment with therequirements in the controlled area. Thisreduces cycling of the mechanicalequipment while providing bettertemperature control.
Series 70, 90 and sometimes Series 60 aremodulating.

SERIES 40 AND 80 CONTROL
Series 40 and 80 are identical except forthe voltage of the control circuit. Series40 is line, typically 120 volts AC, whileSeries 80 is low, typically 24 volts AC.A controller with SPST switching, similarto a light switch, is used. The actuator isenergized and repositioned fully to itsother position. When the ambienttemperature, or control point, is attainedthe controller switch is opened, theactuator is de-energized and it is springreturned to its normal position.
Applications for this type of actuator are:
Two-position preheat valves on 100%outside air, or make-up, airhandlersthat are fully opened at a certain outsideair temperature.
Coil valves on airhandlers that are openedfully and the heat output is modulatedwith face and bypass dampers.
Seasonal changeover valves to switchwater flows in piping from heating tocooling.

This is an airhandler with 100% outside airusage. There is a glycol preheat coil that mustbe opened fully whenever the outside airtemperature is below 35 Deg. F. (2 C). This isaccomplished with the direct digital controller.Additionally as a freeze avoidance measure the
preheat coil must be fully opened prior tostarting the fan if the outside air temperature isbelow 35 Deg. F. (2 C). This is done with aT675 with its bulb in the outside air. Once thepreheat coil valve is opened fully during coldweather the reheat valve is then modulated.

Series 60 uses a SPDT controller.There are two types of SPDT. Oneis referred to as 2-position with twoelectrical circuits. One of them isalways made which provides 2-position control.
The other type is SPDT floating. Itprovides Series 60 floating control.Similar to 2-position Series 60 thereare two separate control circuits.There is, however, an additionalposition in the center at which neithercircuit is made. This has the effectof stopping the actuator regardlessof its position. The actuator remainsthere till either of the two circuits,open or close, is made again. Longermotor timing, 3 or 7 minutes,frequently provides improved results.Floating control such as thisapproximates modulation.
Series 60 floating control actuatorscan be selected with (ML62xx) orwithout (ML61xx) feedback signal.Feedback models are selected if the

The direct digital controller used in thispressure independent application can beconfigured with SPDT output relays. Theserelays can be used to control a Series 60 orSeries 60 floating actuator.
The reheat coil which is supplied through thevalve should be sequenced with the damper.When the room is warm the valve should befull closed and the damper should be full opento supply maximum cooling volume to thearea. As the room temperature drops thedamper should be modulated closed. Whenthe temperature is at the setpoint desired forthe area the damper should be at a minimumposition sufficient for ventilation purposes. Ifthe temperature drops below setpoint thedamper should remain at minimum and theheating valve should be modulated towardthe open position.

Series 90 has long been a Honeywellstandard and controllers and thermostatswith this circuit are still being produced.Initially it consisted of a three wirepotentiometer with a slidewire. Theslidewire is connected to a bellows whichexpands or contracts as the temperatureor humidity changes. (Note illustrationon page 38.) This repositions theslidewire, changes the potentiometerresistance and opens or closes the actuatorproportionally. Many control circuits indevices made by Honeywell and othercompanies electronically simulate theSeries 90 potentiometer. HoneywellSeries 90 direct coupled actuators can beused with either 135 ohm or electronicSeries 90 control input signals.
This application is a heating coil in anairhandler that is being modulated froma room thermostat through a supply airlow limit. The inlet air flow to the heatingcoil comes either from a mixed air sectionor a 100% outdoor air intake. Thefunction of the low limit is to prevent thesupply air to the conditioned area fromever falling below its setpoint of 60 Deg.F (16 C). The room might be kept at warmby the lights or the number of peopleadjacent to the thermostat causing theheating valve to be closed. On a cold daythe temperature of the air being suppliedfrom the coil might cause cold drafts inthe room. A supply air low limit preventsthis by opening the heating valve whenneeded regardless of the roomtemperature.

Most ball valve stems are either 1/2 (13 mm)
or 1 inch (25 mm). The hub size of the actuatorshould match the diameter of the stem. Thisis important since most of the direct coupledactuators are available with various hub sizes.Similar to most globe valves the stem shouldalways be one degree or more above horizontal.Direct contact of moisture or condensation cancause damage to most direct coupled actuators.
Honeywell ball valves are designed with arotation of approximately 90 degrees. If thislimit is substantially exceeded the positionindicator will be bent with no other damageto the valve. The indicator is repairable bybending it back to the correct position. MostHoneywell direct coupled actuators are 90 or95 degrees of rotation so no adjustments are

required. It is important however to installthe actuator correctly so that the startpointof the actuator aligns correctly with thestartpoint of the valve rotation. Many ballvalves are sold as preset assemblies whichrequire no adjustment. Installation of anew actuator or replacement of a defectiveunit however will require alignment ofthe startpoints of the valve and theactuator. This is discussed on the nextpages.
BALL VALVE ROTATION LIMITS
63-7035 Honeywell Valves and Actuators - Page 51
Ball valves are available either as acomplete assembly or as a separate itemwithout an actuator. Illustrated on thispage is the valve without an actuator. Thiscan facilitate installation since the valvebody can be installed in the piping whileconstruction work that might damage theactuator continues around the device. Onthe next pages certain procedures required
to install the actuator onto the valve areillustrated.
The valve linkage is pre-installed on thevalve. There are different linkages fordifferent actuators though one linkage canbe used with more than one type ofactuator. The diameter and height of thestem varies also.

DIRECT COUPLED ACTUATORS
For many years the primary method ofcontrolling a commercial valve with anelectric actuator was to use a three pieceassembly. It consisted of a valve body, avalve linkage and an electric or electronicactuator.
A recent product development isDirect Coupled Actuators (DCA). Theseare compact, economical and availablefor small to medium sized applications.DCA’s are widely used on damperapplications. New products for ball valvesand commercial globe valves permit theuse of these same actuators on valves.
This is a benefit to both the service personand the building owner in that one actuatorcan be stocked for replacement of bothvalve and damper actuators. There is alsoa standardization of wiring connectionsbetween between actuators regardless ofthe application. The torque rating of thesedirect coupled actuators is generally notas high as pneumatic actuators so theywill primarily be limited to small andmedium size valves. The higher flowcapacities of ball valves though willgenerally result in many applications ofdirect coupled actuators on valves.

Direct coupled actuators are widely usedon damper applications today. The samedevices can now be used on ball valves.They are available in a wide range ortorque outputs and in most control seriesconfigurations. Besides being moreeconomical than conventional actuators
there are other benefits associated withusing these devices. Installation istypically quicker with fewer linkages andadjustments. The weight of the actuatoris substantially less. The same actuatorcan be used for the dampers in additionto the valves thereby reducing inventory.

This actuator is reversed by flipping it 180degrees. This reverses not only the directionof opening and closing but also the springreturn. Since the actuator on the right springreturns in a different direction the hub must
be fastened to the stem while the valve is inthe closed position. Otherwise the positionindicator will be bent. The control of thevalve assembly will also not be correct.

It isrecommended to set the A switch toa lower value, such as between 0 and45 degrees rotation and the B switchto a higher value, such as 45 to 90degrees. The switch differential is 5degrees for each switch.
The switches should only be adjustedwhen the actuator is at the 0 degreemark on the range scale. Thescaleplate for the switches is onlycorrect when the actuator is at thatposition. If the actuator is at adifferent point on the scale, it shouldbe set close to zero by removingpower and having it spring returnclosed.

UNLOCKING SPRING
The ML6425 and ML7425 are springreturn valves. The spring that eitherextends or retracts the stem is locked intoa fully open position on new actuators.This allows for installation onto the valveand then release of the spring. It is notnecessary to have power on the actuatorprior to or during installation.
Stem cannot rotate because of beinglocked into pins at bottom. Red clip at topkeeps stem in locked position.

ML7421 VALVE ACTUATOR CONTROL FUNCTIONS
SIGNAL OVERRIDE
The ML7421 is equipped with a signaloverride function. This can be used as a lowor high limit or a switchover. The controlsignal is completely shut out and the actuatoris put to either a full open or a full closedposition. This is done from a Single PoleDouble Throw switch. Some applicationsmight be:
1. Supply air low limit2. Freeze avoidance3. Heat/cool switchover4. Occupied/unoccupied5. High temperature l imi t6. Humidity high limit
SIGNAL REVERSE SWITCH S1
ACTION WITH NO SIGNAL INPUT
The S1 switch is only on 0 to 10 VDC actuators.It is used to reverse the output of the actuatorto a control signal. The ML7421 is set to extendor push downward on an increasing controlvoltage signal. It will retract on a decreasingvoltage. Adjusting S1 will reverse this. It is onthe printed circuit board. On actuators with 2to 10 vdc circuitry, the action is reversed byswitching the control wiring.
Electric and electronic actuators arefrequently designed to be "electricallyclosed" or "electrically open." This refers tothe position the actuator will be in if thecontrol signal is removed. This is not thesame though as normally closed or normallyopen, which is what occurs if the power istaken off the device. On the ML7421 theposition of the actuator is adjustable whenthere is no control signal. The actuator can beput to full open, full closed or 50% open.Note: This only applies to control circuitsother than series 90. For series 90 control theswitch must be open.
Switch open: actuatorgoes to middle positionon no control signal.
Switch in J1 position:actuator goes to fulllower position if nosignal.
Switch in J2 position:actuator goes to fullupper position if nosignal.

Honeywell’s commercial globe valveswere modified in 1987. In addition tochanges in the disc and seatconfigurations the shape of the bonnetwas altered. This affected the use ofthe ML7984 actuator. The amount ofclose-off changes from the pre-1987valves to the newer ones when aML7984 is used. This is caused bythe change in effective stem lift when
the actuator is used with the newervalves. To solve this there is a specificactuator ML7984A 3019 made for theV5011 or V5013A and C valves. TheML7984A 3001 is made for the newerV5011 or V5013 F or G valves. Thiswill only be important in retrofitapplications since the 5-sided bonnetvalves are no longer sold.

Installing the actuator to the valve is simplebut there are a couple of very importantsteps.
First remove the stem button from thevalve. Save the set screw for laterinstallation.
Insure the valve body is installed correctlywith the arrow pointing in the direction offlow.
Although the actuator can be mounted inany position it is preferable that theML7984 is mounted above the valve body.This will minimize risk of damage to theactuator in the event of condensation or avalve gland leak.
STEP 2
Next slide the red valve position indicatordisk on the valve stem.
The indicator disk will self-align to themarking on the yoke after one completeopening and closing cycle.

ML7984A on the printedcircuit board there is a 4position dip switch to theright of the wir ingterminal block. Thisswitch is used to configurethe actuator to the desiredoperating mode.
For example i f theactuator is to operate witha 10-2 Vdc (reverseacting) signal from thecontroller the dip switcheswould be configured as:
Switches 1 and 3: ONSwitches 2 and 4: OFF
When controlling multipleactuators from a primaryin the 4-20 mA or 20-4mA mode switch 1 on theprimary actuator is ONand switch 1 on thecontrolled actuators isOFF.
To reset the operatingmode simply reconfigurethe switches, interrupt,then restore power.

PULSE WIDTH MODULATION
A newer type of control circuit used withDDC controllers for which Honeywellmakes direct coupled actuators is PulseWidth Modulation (PWM). This is adigital modulation control mode whichrequires a specific actuator. The durationof a defined voltage signal sent from thecontroller to the actuator is adjusted basedupon the need for heating or cooling. Ifthe room is cold a longer signal mightbe sent to a heating valve to open it more
fully. As the room warms the duration ofthe signal is shortened to close the valve.It can be compared to Morse Codewherein shorter taps have a differentsignificance than longer taps. The timewidth or interval and the voltageresolution of the signal are notstandardized in the control industry.Honeywell PWM actuators are adjustableat installation for many types of PWMmodes.

If this control circuit were this type ofpulse width modulation:
Minimum signal of 0.1 seconds0.01 second incrementsMaximum duration 2.65 seconds
Then the actuator would be at 50% orhalf open position. This is calculatedby subtracting the minimum signalfrom 2.65 seconds.
2.65 minus 0.1 equals 2.55.
2.55 divided by .01 increments equals255 increments.
The signal being sent is 1.38 seconds.This is 128 increments more than theminimum of 0.1.
128 is approximately half of 255 puttingthe actuator at a 50% position.
A pulse duration of 1.80 secondswould be 170 increments more thanthe minimum.
170 is approximately 2/3 of 255putting the actuator at a 2/3 position.

MOD IV VALVE AND DAMPER ACTUATORS
While Honeywell provides a complete lineof direct coupled valve actuators there aremany retrofit applications where it ispreferrable to replace a modutrol motorwith a similar motor. This could be due tohigh torque requirements or inability ofremoving insulation from the linkage. TheMod IV line of motors is available toreplace virtually all previous Honeywellactuators and can be adapted to the existinglinkage if necessary. A newer Q5001 valvelinkage is also available.
Some of the valve-specific features of theMod IV line of actuators are:
24 Vac input

The shaft heigth on the Honeywell Mod IVmotors is 3/4 inches (2 cm) lower than that ofthe previous line of motors the Mod III. Whenreplacing Mod III actuators in valveapplications without replacing the Q618linkage, an adapter plate is required. Thisadapter, which raises the heigth of the shaft3/4 inches (2 cm) has been included in the boxwith some motors. This plate is installed onthe valve linkage first. The Mod IV actuatoris then bolted to the plate.
If the Q618 valve linkage is damaged and anew Q5001 linkage is used to replace it theadapter plate is not needed.
The adapter plate can also be used on damperapplications if it is necessary to have the shaftheight match the previous motor.

PNEUMATIC ACTUATORS
There are applications in which it ispreferable to use air-powered orpneumatic actuators on valves. Thesemight be intermixed in a building alongwith electric or electronic actuatorsdepending upon whether it is newconstruction or retrofit. There are manypurposes for using a pneumaticactuator instead of electric. Mostcommon is the size of the valve. Largervalves require higher torque foracceptable close-off ratings. Pneumaticactuators provide higher torque thanmost commercial electric actuators.
An equipment room environment thatis very humid with excessive amountsof condensation directly onto theactuator will not have a substantialeffect on a pneumatic valve actuator.While electric actuators are availablewith water resistant enclosures the costis increased and the ambienttemperature rating might be lowered.
If the actuator is cycled excessivelysuch as supply air in an airhandler themaximum number of cycles for anelectric motor can be reached in anunacceptably short length of time.Replacement of the entire actuator isfrequently required instead of repair.A pneumatic actuator is frequentlyrepairable with minimal parts and tools.
The actuators above illustrate the twotypes of pneumatic actuators: apneumatic actuator for a valveassembly on the left and an integral orunitary pneumatic valve on the right.The difference is that the unitary valvesare available only as a completeassembly. The actuators on the left areavailable in different sizes andconfigurations and can be used with awide range of valves. Repair parts areavailable for each. Unitary valves canbe adapted for various sequencingapplications by installing spring rangeswith different pressure ratings.

A pneumatic actuator with onlyone line connected to it suchas the one illustrated on thebottom only has the branch linepressure available to close it.If a normally open valve springrange is 4 to 7 PSI (28 to 48 kPa)
and the branch line pressure is8 PSI (55 kPa) the valve shouldbe closed. If the water or steampressure is excessively high orif there is a piece of scale onthe valve seat the valve mightnot be fully closed at thatpressure. Using a positivepositioner can correct for thisby applying full main pressurewhich can be as high as 20 PSI(138 kPa) to fully close the valveregardless of the branch linepressure. Positive positionersare also used on larger valveassemblies to provide a higherlevel of control.

Transducers are used to take an electronicsignal from a controller and convert it toa pneumatic signal to modulate a valve ordamper actuator. This is frequently on onmixed air dampers since multiple largedamper motors can be connected to one
transducer. In this application a pneumaticheating coil valve is being controlled withan electronic-to-pneumatic transducer.Multiple transducers can be used for othercontrol loops such as face and bypassdampers, mixed air or a cooling coil.

V5852/53 and V5862/63 are two andthree-way valves available 1/2 (1.25 cm)
and 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) threaded and solderedwith a Cv up to 4.9. The three-way valvesare mixing. They are widely used onvariable air volume box applications sincethe noise level is very low. A valveassembly that is audible during theopening or closing cycle can be
unacceptable in an office environment.Actuators are available floating orproportional in electric or pneumatic. Aspecial tool is available that can be usedto install a replacement valve insertwithout draining the fluid from the piping.The protective cap that is supplied withthe valve can also be used to manuallyopen and close the valve.

Unit ventilators are widely used inschools, meeting rooms and otherhigh density zoned areas. They areavailable in many configurations withhot or chilled water coils, directexpansion refrigeration or electricheat. They are typically located onan outdoor wall to eliminate the needfor a ducted outside air intake yetthey can be located in ceilings orother locations.
Some typical controlsequences for uni tventilators from theHoneywell Engineeringmanual are illustratedbelow.

If the room becomes warm and the heatingvalve closesd the supply air temperaturecan drop too low and cause cold drafts inthe room. A supply air low limit preventsthis by opening the heating valve if thesupply temperature decreases below 55 or60 Deg. F (13 or 16 C). Once the supply airtemperature rises above the low limit
setpoint the control of the heating valve isswitched back to the room sensor. Thesupply air sensor can also be used tomodulate the mixed air dampers to provideeconomizer cooling if there is a outsideair sensor connected to the direct digitalcontrol panel.
