Armstrong Fluid Technology 216944-300
The Armstrong Fluid Technology 216944-300 is a high-performance Pressure Water Reducing Valve designed for precision in commercial and residential HVAC hydronic systems. This Armstrong RD-11T/S model features a robust brass body construction, ensuring long-term durability and resistance to corrosion. Engineered with a 1/2" NPT Union Inlet and a 1/2" Female NPT outlet, it simplifies installation in tight piping configurations. The valve is pre-configured with a 12 PSI factory setpoint but offers a versatile 7-25 PSI outlet adjustment range to meet specific system requirements. With a 125 PSI max inlet pressure rating, it effectively protects downstream components from pressure surges. This unit integrates a built-in strainer to prevent debris from compromising the seal and a check valve to prevent backflow, making it an essential component for maintaining hydronic system pressure stability and protecting your investment in boiler and cooling infrastructure.
Key Benefits:
- Enhanced System Protection: Maintains a consistent 12 PSI factory setpoint to prevent over-pressurization of sensitive HVAC components.
- Integrated Filtration: The built-in strainer captures sediment, reducing maintenance needs and extending the life of the internal mechanism.
- Backflow Prevention: Features an integrated check valve to ensure fluid moves in a single direction, protecting the potable water supply.
- Durable Construction: The heavy-duty brass body provides excellent thermal stability and mechanical strength under high-pressure conditions.
- Installation Flexibility: The 1/2" NPT union inlet allows for easy serviceability and quick replacement without cutting existing pipework.
Common Questions:
How do I adjust the outlet pressure on the Armstrong RD-11?
The outlet pressure can be adjusted between 7 and 25 PSI by turning the adjustment screw located on the top of the valve housing. Always monitor a pressure gauge during adjustment to ensure the desired setpoint is reached.
Does this valve include a bypass for filling the system?
The Armstrong 216944-300 is designed for automatic pressure regulation. For rapid initial system filling, some technicians use the adjustment screw or a separate bypass loop depending on local mechanical codes.
Can this pressure reducing valve be installed in any orientation?
While typically installed horizontally, it can function in various orientations; however, ensuring the 1/2" female NPT outlet is correctly aligned with flow direction is critical for the integrated check valve to function properly.
