Macon Controls N10950 Body
The Macon Controls N10950 is a high-performance 3/4 inch sweat straight radiator valve body engineered for precision flow regulation in hydronic and low-pressure steam heating systems. Featuring a 2.5 CV flow coefficient, this thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) body is a staple for contractors managing terminal equipment like baseboards, convectors, and freestanding radiators. The forged brass, nickel-plated construction ensures durability, while the sweat connection design provides a leak-free integration for standard copper piping. Designed to function as a straight pattern valve, it accommodates high-flow requirements while maintaining a compact footprint for tight installations. This hydronic control valve is compatible with the full range of Macon thermostatic operators and electric actuators, allowing for a fully automatic modulating unit that optimizes energy efficiency by up to 30%. With its stainless steel spindle and replaceable insert, the N10950 is built for long-term field reliability and easy maintenance without the need to drain the system when changing operators.
Key Benefits- Optimized Flow Control: The 2.5 CV rating supports consistent heat distribution across medium-sized zones and radiators.
- Industry-Standard Compatibility: Pairs seamlessly with Macon thermostatic operators for non-electric, automatic temperature regulation.
- Rugged Construction: Nickel-plated brass body resists corrosion and handles terminal equipment demands in residential and commercial settings.
- Maintenance Efficiency: The replaceable valve insert allows for quick servicing; operators can be swapped without a system drain-down.
- Versatile Application: Rated for both hot water and low-pressure steam, providing a universal solution for hydronic upgrades.
- What is the maximum operating pressure for the N10950? This valve body is designed for standard hydronic systems and can handle up to 15 PSI for low-pressure steam and higher ratings for hot water fluid systems.
- Can I use this valve with other brands of actuators? While optimized for Macon Controls, compatibility depends on the thread pitch and stroke length. We recommend using Macon series operators to ensure proper modulation.
- Does the valve ship in the open or closed position? The N10950 is shipped in the normally open position and includes a protective cap that can be used for manual flow control during the construction phase.
