The Danfoss 003N7162 is a professional-grade AVTA 20 thermostatic water regulating valve engineered for precise, self-acting flow control in industrial cooling and heating systems. Designed for 3/4 inch NPT pipe connections, this self-acting cooling water valve operates without the need for external power or compressed air, making it an ideal "fit and forget" solution for hydraulic stations, compressors, and induction heaters. This specific model features a universal charge and is calibrated for a temperature regulating range of 77-150°F (25-65°C).

Constructed with a rugged forged brass body and a 2000mm (78-3/4 inch) capillary tube, the Danfoss AVTA 003N7162 is pressure-relieved, ensuring that the kv value of 3.4 m³/h remains consistent regardless of fluctuating differential pressures. It is highly insensitive to dirt and can withstand a maximum working pressure of 232 psig (16 bar). These thermostatic valves are critical for maintaining tight temperature tolerances while minimizing water consumption in demanding HVACR and process cooling environments.

Key Benefits:
  • Self-Acting Operation: Functions entirely on thermostatic pressure, eliminating the need for wiring or electrical controllers.
  • High Pressure Resilience: Rated for a maximum test pressure of 362 psig and capable of handling differential pressure up to 145 psi.
  • Precision Flow Control: Specifically designed to open on rising sensor temperature, providing proportional cooling as thermal load increases.
  • Versatile Media Compatibility: Suitable for fresh water and neutral brine with a wide media temperature range from -13°F to 266°F.
  • Durable Internal Components: Features a stainless steel valve seat and EPDM diaphragms for long-term reliability in industrial settings.
Common Questions:
  • What is the difference between a universal charge and a mass charge? This AVTA 20 003N7162 uses a universal charge, meaning the sensor can be installed in a location that is either warmer or colder than the valve body itself.
  • Can this valve be used for steam heating? While the AVTA series is primarily for cooling water, it can be used for heating applications if the bellows pressure is configured to close on rising temperature; however, this model is factory-set to open on rising temperature for cooling.
  • Is a capillary tube gland included? Yes, this code number typically includes the capillary tube gland for a complete NPT connection installation.
