Applications
According to Tecofi, a balancing valve adjusts the flow rate in circuits by creating additional pressure loss through precise adjustment. Areas of use: heating circuits, air conditioning. Fluids: heat transfer fluids (water, glycol water…), refrigerant.
Technical features
- Design to BS 7350; Y-pattern globe valve; fixed-orifice double regulating valve; oblique seat for high adjustment precision.
- Flow measurement accuracy ±5% at any open valve position; the throttling disc tends towards equal percentage performance.
- The valve opening is set with an Allen key; operated by a microset handwheel; two pressure test points allow pressure loss to be measured.
- Test pressures per EN 12266-1, DIN 3230, BS 6755 and ISO 5208: body 37.5 bar, seat 27.5 bar. BSP connection per ISO 7; product approval no. 2201818 per the passport.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about RC2152
What type of balancing valve is the RC2152?
A threaded fixed-orifice balancing valve, Y-pattern, double regulating, with an oblique seat and a bronze body, PN25, for heating and air-conditioning circuits.
How do I choose the RC2152 size from the flow?
Use the Kvs by size: DN15 2.2; DN20 4.6; DN25 8.5; DN32 16.7; DN40 26.1; DN50 43.2. Send the design flow and desired pressure loss and CAD will advise the size.
How accurate is the RC2152 flow measurement and how is it done?
Tecofi states a flow measurement accuracy of ±5% at any open position; pressure loss is measured through the pressure test points on the valve body.
What should I send CAD to quote an RC2152?
Send the DN size or the design flow and pressure loss, the fluid, pressure, temperature and quantity. CAD quotes within 24 working hours.
