Belimo B312B Valve
When you need a reliable 3-way ball valve for precise hydronic control, the Belimo B312B valve is a robust choice. This 1/2" NPT valve, featuring a 3.0 Cv, is engineered for demanding HVAC applications. Its nickel-plated forged brass body, chrome-plated brass ball, and nickel-plated brass stem ensure durability and chemical resistance, making it suitable for chilled or hot water systems up to 250°F (120°C), including those with up to 60% glycol solution. The A-port provides an equal percentage flow characteristic, while the B-port is modified for constant common port flow, ensuring stable regulation. With a 600 psi body pressure rating and a 200 psi close-off pressure, this characterized control valve (CCV) is designed for longevity and consistent performance in critical systems like air handling units, fan coil units, Unit Ventilators, VAV box re-heat coils, and bypass loops. It's a maintenance-free component, built to integrate seamlessly into variable or constant flow hydronic systems.
