Principle of operation (Fig. 2) The medium flows through the valve body (1) in the direction indicated by the arrow. The position of the valve plug (3) determines the flow rate across the area released between the valve's plug and seat (2). The plug stem (5) with the plug is connected to the actuator stem (11). To control the pressure, the operating diaphragm (12) is pretensioned by the positioning springs (7) and the set point adjuster (6). As a result, the valve is closed by the force of the positioning springs in pressureless state (p1 = p2). The upstream pressure p1 to be controlled is tapped upstream of the valve and transmitted through the control line (14) to the operating diaphragm (12) where it is converted into a positioning
DN 15 to 50

force. This force is used to move the valve plug (3) depending on the force of the positioning springs (7). The spring force can be adjusted on the set point adjuster (6). When the force resulting from the upstream pressure p1 exceeds the adjusted pressure set point, the valve is opened proportionally to the change in pressure. The fully balanced valve is equipped with a balancing bellows (4): the downstream pressure p2 acts on the inside of the bellows, the upstream pressure p1 acts on the outside of the bellows. As a result, the forces produced by the upstream and downstream pressures acting on the valve plug are balanced. The valve can be equipped with a flow divider St I. When retrofitting a flow divider, the valve seat needs to be replaced.

Installation Standard installation: Install the regulator with the actuator suspended downwards. Install the horizontal pipeline with a slight downward slope on both sides of the valve for condensate drainage. For further details on installation refer to EB 2517 EN. Install the regulator with the direction of Type 41-73 Standard version flow matching the arrow on the valve body. Adapt the control line (not included in the scope of delivery) to the conditions on site. A control line kit for pressure tapping directly at the valve body is available on request (accessories). Accessories Included in the scope of delivery: Screw joint with restriction for connection of 38" control line Additional accessories that can be ordered separately: Compression-type screw fittings e.g. for connection of 6 mm, 8 mm or 12 mm pipe Control line kit (optionally with or without condensation chamber) for direct attach- Type 41-73 ment to the valve and actuator (pressure Control line kit and tapping directly at the valve body, for set condensation chamber points 0.8 bar). Condensation chamber for steam condensation and protection of the operating diaphragm against excessive temperatures. Required for steam and liquids at temperatures exceeding 150 C. For details on the accessories refer to Data Sheet T 2595 EN.
