Note Valves are furnished standard with right inlets. Proceed as follows whenever it is necessary to invert the inlet: 1) remove the manual lever and the metal label 2) remove the valve cover and extract the internal rotor 3) rotate the internal aluminium bush 180° so that the profiled path is positioned at the opposite side 4) reinstall the internal rotor in the same position 5) reinstall the metal label upside down from its previous position 6) The valve must be installed in the plumbing circuit according to the flow direction specified on the valve. |
Main characteristics
This type of mixing valve is used in central heating system to ensure a hot return to the boiler and consequently achieve thermal operation at sufficiently high temperatures to prevent vapour condensation in the boiler. Vapours, in combination with the products of combustion, can generate corrosive compounds that reduce the operating life of the boiler. MUT valves are furnished with manual control but can be easily motorised at any time using servomotors and valve-motor connections marketed by the manufacturers of regulation components. Rotor rotation angle used for the regulation, is about 90°. Mixing is done by a circular segment rotor in models VDM and by a butterfly valve in models VM. |
