PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Tecofi RC4241 Cast Iron Balancing Valve
RC4241 is a Tecofi (France) ductile iron flanged PN16 balancing valve with a fixed orifice: a calibrated orifice plate on the inlet flange allows fixed flow measurement, regulation and cut off, from DN65 to DN600. This page covers RC4241 only; RC4240 is the variable-orifice type (PN16), and RC4251 is the same fixed-orifice type flanged PN25.

Kvs and weights are as printed in the datasheet dimension table; the datasheet gives no weight for DN600. Ref codes follow the pattern RC4241-xxxx where xxxx is the DN (for example RC4241-0100).
Difference from RC4240 and RC4251
- Orifice: RC4241 has a calibrated orifice plate on the inlet flange for fixed flow measurement, regulation and cut off, with ±5% accuracy at any open position per BS 7350. RC4240 is the variable-orifice type adjusted by handwheel.
- Pressure rating: RC4241 is PN16 (max. 16 bar, body test 24 bar, seat test 17.6 bar); RC4251 is PN25 (max. 25 bar, body test 37.5 bar, seat test 27.5 bar).
- Kvs: the RC4241 dimension table (DN65: 104; DN100: 213) is the same as RC4251 and differs from RC4240 (DN65: 83.8; DN100: 178.7).
- Materials, temperature, L / D / H dimensions and RAL 6005 epoxy coating are the same as RC4240 and RC4251 in the datasheets.
Applications
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, etc. (per the datasheet).
