The Belimo B310B is a professional-grade 1/2 inch NPT 3-way characterized control valve engineered for precision in hydronic systems. This nickel-plated forged brass valve features a 1.2 Cv rating and utilizes a specialized A-port equal percentage flow characteristic to ensure linear heat output from coils, while the modified B-port maintains constant common port flow. Built to handle chilled or hot water systems with up to 60% glycol solution, the assembly includes a chrome-plated brass ball and a nickel-plated brass stem designed to withstand temperatures up to 250°F. This mixing or diverting valve is a reliable choice for HVAC control valve applications requiring tight shut-off and stable modulation. By integrating a specialized Tefzel characterizing disc, the Belimo B310B eliminates the hunting common in standard ball valves, providing a stable pressure independent feel for precise hydronic flow control in demanding commercial environments.

Key Benefits for Contractors
  • Optimized Flow Control: The A-port equal percentage characteristic ensures predictable system performance and stable temperature regulation.
  • Durable Construction: High-quality nickel-plated forged brass body and EPDM O-rings provide long-term reliability in high-temperature applications.
  • Glycol Compatible: Rated for use with up to 60% glycol, making it versatile for both heating and cooling loops.
  • High Close-off Pressure: Designed to maintain 100% bubble-tight shut-off, preventing leakage and energy waste in the bypass or coil.
  • Reduced Maintenance: Blowout-proof stem design and stainless steel/brass internals resist mineral buildup and mechanical wear.
