Cimberio
Cimberio, the Italian valves manufacturer, has introduced Monolink, a preassembled and factory-tested valve for fan coil units, which is being marketed in the Middle East region by Naffco Flow Control. The company claims that the product is offered in an attractive condensation-proof casing, thus avoiding insulation problems, making servicing easy.
The manufacturer lists the following product features and advantages:
- Incorporates components, such as a strainer, by-pass valve, balancing valve and drain cock with no requirement of assembly at site
- Reduces the number of connections from the traditional 22 joints, (with separate individual valves) to just six connections union type, making installation easier and faster, thus saving on almost 30% to 35% on cost
- Ideal for projects with space constraints
- Minimal pressure drop
- Nominal pressure PN25
- Working temperature: from -200C TO 120C
- Full bore ball valve for easier flushing
- Designed to provide flexible configuration of the system (use of either manual or automatic balancing valves)
- A 100% European product with full approvals
PICV – Pressure Independent Control Valve
PICV – Pressure Independent Control Valve is another product from Cimberio. The manufacturer lists the following product features and advantages:
- Due to unique design it is able to perform the important functions of regulation (selection of required flow-rate), control (constant flow-rate regardless of pressure fluctuations) and flow-rate modulation
- Reduction of balancing costs, improved energy saving and high environmental comfort
- Easy flushing due to quick and simple removal of differential pressure control cartridge placed inside valve body
- Reduced installation dimensions due to compact valve construction, which does not require inlet and outlet straight pipe-lines to stabilise the flow
According to Cimberio, the two products – Monolink valve for fan coil unit and PICV – come with a five-year factory warranty and full after-sales service and support from Naffco Flow Control.
