Belimo Ball Valve Cv Floating Control

The Belimo ball valve with floating control is an actuated HVAC control valve for hydronic heating and cooling systems. It is also called a characterized control valve (CCV) or a floating point control ball valve. The valve pairs a quarter-turn ball valve body with a Belimo rotary actuator, so it can regulate water flow to air handlers, heating and cooling coils, fan coil units, unit ventilators and VAV re-heat coils.

Key Features:

• Floating point control: The actuator accepts a standard control-system signal and drives the ball to the position the controller calls for.
• Tight shut-off: The ball valve design gives high close-off capability and bubble-tight closure, which helps limit energy losses and operating costs.
• Characterized flow: On characterized control valve models, a specially shaped disc gives an equal percentage flow characteristic. Flow increases slowly and predictably as the valve opens, which supports stable control and good part-load behavior.
• Cv range: The Cv (flow coefficient) is the flow in GPM at a 1 psi pressure drop. Belimo offers a broad range of Cv values so the valve can be matched to the coil and piping requirements.
• Quarter-turn operation: Rotary actuation suits both on/off and modulating applications.
• Configurations: Belimo ball valves are offered in two-way and three-way versions for different piping layouts.

Belimo is a leading maker of HVAC actuators and valves. These valves are intended for commercial building automation and hydronic system applications where reliable, accurate flow control matters. Choose the specific model by Cv, valve configuration and actuator type.
