Resideo AM102-US-1LF Valve
The Resideo AM102-US-1LF Valve is a professional-grade 1 inch union sweat mixing valve engineered for precision temperature regulation in high-demand residential and light commercial hydronic systems. As part of the veteran Braukmann AM-1 series, this valve utilizes a proportional thermostatic design to simultaneously control hot and cold water supplies, ensuring a stable mixed outlet temperature despite fluctuations in inlet conditions. With a 3.9 Cv flow capacity and a versatile temperature range of 70-145°F, it is an ideal solution for standard potable water applications, radiant floor heating, and scald prevention. The low lead brass body is nickel-plated for corrosion resistance, while the Teflon-coated internal surfaces prevent mineral and scale buildup, significantly extending the service life of the shuttle and spool assembly.
Key Benefits for the Contractor:- Scald Protection: Engineered to reduce flow within seconds if the cold water supply is interrupted, meeting ASSE 1017 standards for point-of-source safety.
- Enhanced Hot Water Volume: Allows water heaters to be set at higher temperatures to kill bacteria (like Legionella) while delivering safe, tempered water at the tap.
- Field Serviceability: Features a straight-through design and union connections that allow for easy element replacement and maintenance without cutting into the piping.
- Tamper-Resistant Adjustment: The lockable handwheel requires a manual lift-and-turn movement to change settings, preventing accidental temperature shifts.
- Certified Compliance: Lead-free construction (<0.25% weighted average) ensures full compliance with safe drinking water acts and local plumbing codes.
What is the minimum flow requirement for accurate sensing?
The AM102-US-1LF maintains reliable temperature control at a minimum flow rate of 0.5 GPM. For systems with very low flow, ensuring a 2:1 pressure ratio between hot and cold inlets is critical for preventing "hunting" or temperature oscillation.
Can this valve be used for diverting applications?
Yes, the AM-1 series is a dual-purpose proportional valve that can be piped for either mixing or diverting applications, providing flexibility for specific boiler loop or solar thermal configurations.
How do I prevent mineral binding in hard water areas?
While the internal Teflon coating resists scale, we recommend installing the valve in an accessible location for periodic flushing. If internal parts become restricted, the lower assembly can be removed and cleaned with a mild descaler like vinegar.
