Belimo B316 Valve

For contractors demanding precise hydronic system control, the Belimo B316 3-Way Ball Valve is engineered to deliver. This 1/2-inch, NPT threaded characterized control valve (CCV) boasts a robust 16 Cv, making it ideal for managing flow in critical HVAC applications. Its nickel-plated forged brass body, coupled with a stainless steel ball and stem, ensures durability and reliable performance with chilled or hot water systems, accommodating temperatures up to 250°F and glycol solutions up to 60%. The A-port provides an equal percentage flow characteristic, while the B-port is modified for constant common port flow, offering versatile mixing or diverting capabilities. This valve is a workhorse for air handling units, fan coil units, unit ventilators, and VAV box re-heat coils, ensuring stable and efficient operation across variable or constant flow hydronic systems.
