Belimo EP050+AKRX-E Valve
The Belimo EP050+AKRX-E is a high-performance 1/2" Pressure Independent Characterized Control Valve (PICCV), engineered to provide precise hydronic balancing and flow control in closed chilled or hot water systems. This 2-way electronic pressure independent control valve (ePIV) eliminates the need for manual balancing valves by utilizing an integrated ultrasonic flow sensor and a powerful AKRX-E electronic fail-safe actuator. Operating on 24VAC/DC, the assembly ensures a constant flow rate regardless of system pressure fluctuations, effectively solving "Low Delta T Syndrome" and maximizing chiller plant efficiency. With a nominal flow capacity of 6.6 GPM and Stainless Steel trim, this valve is designed for long-term reliability in demanding HVAC applications. The actuator supports modulating, communicative (BACnet, Modbus, MP-Bus), and hybrid control modes, allowing for seamless integration into modern Building Management Systems (BMS). Its fail-safe functionality ensures the valve returns to a user-defined position during power loss, protecting critical equipment and maintaining occupant comfort.
- Dynamic Balancing: Maintains accurate flow settings from 5 to 50 psi differential pressure without manual intervention.
- Superior Connectivity: Built-in support for BACnet MS/TP and Modbus RTU for real-time flow data and remote commissioning.
- Fail-Safe Protection: Reliable electronic fail-safe operation moves the valve to a secure position during power interruptions.
- Durability: Features a nickel-plated brass body and Stainless Steel ball and stem to withstand glycol-treated water up to 60%.
- Energy Efficiency: Optimizes coil performance and reduces pumping costs by preventing overflow and maintaining design Delta T.
Common Questions & Answers
How do I configure the flow rate on the EP050+AKRX-E?
Flow parameters can be adjusted on-site via the Belimo Assistant App using NFC technology or through the BMS using communicative protocols like BACnet or Modbus.
Can this PICCV be used in steam applications?
No, this valve is specifically designed for chilled or hot water systems and is not rated for steam or open-loop applications.
What is the benefit of the AKRX-E actuator's electronic fail-safe?
Unlike mechanical spring-return actuators, the electronic fail-safe uses stored energy to provide a controlled, programmable response to power loss, reducing mechanical wear and water hammer.
