AVPQ (PN16)

AVPQ is a self-acting differential pressure and flow controller primarily for use in district heating systems. The controller closes on rising differential pressure or when set max. flow is exceeded.

The controller has a control valve with adjustable flow restrictor, an actuator with two control diaphragms and handle for differential pressure setting (fixed setting version (available on special request) is without handle).

Main data:

  • DN 15-32
  • kVS 1.6-10 m3/h
  • Flow range: 0.06−7.3 m3/h
  • PN 16
  • Setting range (AVPQ): 0.1-0.5 bar / 0.2-1.0 bar
  • Flow restrictor Δpb: 0.2 bar
  • Temperature:
  Circ. water / glycolic water up to 30 %: 2 … 150 °C
  • Connections:
  - Ext. thread (weld-on, thread and flange tailpieces)

Features and benefits

  • Integrated control valve with adjustable flow restrictor and dual-diaphragm actuator (with optional fixed setting) enables precise flow limitation, accurate differential pressure control, and easy commissioning.
  • Protects district heating systems from excessive pressure or flow, ensuring stable operation, improved energy efficiency, and long-term reliability.
