Siemens Building Technology VMP42.10(2) Valve
The Siemens VMP42.10(2) is a versatile 1/2-inch globe valve body engineered for precise control of water and glycol solutions in HVAC terminal units. With a flow coefficient of 0.47 CV, this unit is specifically designed to integrate with Siemens SSC actuators, facilitating seamless automation for hydronic applications. A key field-proven feature of this model is its flexibility: out of the box, it performs as a two-way valve, but removing the cap from the bottom bypass port allows for a rapid conversion into a three-way mixing valve configuration.
Built with a stainless steel plug and stem, the VMP42.10(2) ensures durability in demanding environments like fan coil units, induction units, and small reheat coils. The valve body features external NPT threads for simplified piping and is rated for a maximum medium temperature of 230°F (110°C). Installation is streamlined as no tools are required for actuator mounting, and the included manual plastic cap allows for positioning up to 80% of the stroke during the commissioning phase.
Key Benefits for Technicians:- Multi-Configurational Design: Easily converts from a 2-way to a 3-way mixing valve by removing the bypass port cap.
- Direct Actuator Coupling: Designed for tool-free assembly with Siemens SSC series actuators, reducing labor time during installation.
- Durable Internal Components: Stainless steel stems and plugs provide reliable performance in water and glycol systems.
- Precise Hydronic Control: The 0.47 CV rating is optimized for terminal units requiring low-flow precision.
- Can this be used as a diverting valve? No, when configured as a three-port unit, this valve must always be piped as a mixing valve with flow from A/B to AB.
- Is the actuator included? This is the valve body only; it is intended for use with SSC series electronic actuators.
- What systems is this compatible with? It is suitable for both two-pipe and three-pipe hydronic systems in building automation environments.
