Johnson Controls V246GD1-001C Regulating Valve

The Johnson Controls V246GD1-001C is a 1-inch NPT direct-acting water regulating valve engineered specifically for high-pressure refrigeration systems utilizing modern refrigerants like R-410A. This commercial-type cast iron valve features a pressure-actuated design with a wide adjustable opening point range of 200 to 400 PSI, allowing for precise head pressure control in water-cooled condenser applications. The Style 5 pressure element is equipped with a 1/4-inch external flare fitting, ensuring a secure and standard connection for refrigeration monitoring. Designed for maximum durability, the V246GD1-001C utilizes a pressure-balanced construction that remains unaffected by sudden fluctuations in water pressure. The internal corrosion-resistant materials and take-apart design allow for streamlined maintenance and interior access without the need to pump down the entire system or remove the valve from the line.

• Optimized Head Pressure Control: Precisely modulates water flow to maintain stable refrigerant head pressure, improving overall system efficiency.
• High-Pressure Compatibility: Rated for a maximum working pressure of 630 psig, making it ideal for high-pressure refrigerants.
• Robust Construction: Features a cast iron body with a rust-resisting finish and no close-fitting or sliding parts in the water passages to prevent clogging.
• Serviceability: The take-apart design and accessible range spring facilitate quick field adjustments and manual flushing.

Common Questions
