Honeywell VBN2AKPX0000 1/2" NPT 2-Way Threaded Control Ball Valve 11.7 Cv Brass DCA Profile

The Honeywell VBN2AKPX0000 is a characterized flow, low-torque 2-way control ball valve designed for precise hot and chilled water control in HVAC systems. This 1/2-inch NPT threaded valve features an 11.7 Cv flow coefficient, providing flow capacity that closely matches industry-standard globe valves while offering superior performance in a compact package.

Key Features:

• 1/2-inch female NPT threaded connections for easy installation
• 11.7 Cv flow coefficient with equal percentage flow characteristic
• Nickel-chrome plated brass ball and stem for durability
• DCA (Direct Coupled Actuator) profile design for compatibility with Honeywell actuators
• Low-torque operation requiring only 35 lb-in actuator torque
• Field-serviceable stem assembly without removing valve from piping
• ANSI Class IV seat leakage specification (0.01% of CV maximum)
• Installs in globe valve "T" pattern without extra elbows or piping
• 100 psi minimum close-off pressure rating
• Actuator can be mounted in any of four orientations

This control ball valve is ideal for heating, ventilating, and air conditioning applications requiring two-position or modulating control of water and glycol solutions up to 50%. The patented seat design reduces actuator torque requirements while maintaining tight shutoff performance. Compatible with Honeywell MVN, MN, MS, and DCA series actuators (sold separately).
