Function Zone valves are used to control the thermal carrier fluid in heating and air-conditioning systems. Coupled with a thermo-electric actuator and managed by a room thermostat, they allow automatic on/off control of the part of the hydraulic circuit on which they are inserted. Their special feature is their low flow rate coefficient and they can therefore be installed to control small areas or used directly on the emitters. Product range Zone valves are available in the following configurations: Series 676 Series 677 Series 678 2-way 3-way 4-way sizes 1/2, 3/4, 1 sizes 1/2, 3/4, 1 sizes 1/2, 3/4, 1

They can be coupled with thermo-electric actuator heads: Code 656102/4 Code 656112/4 220 V / 24 V 220 V / 24 V without auxiliary microswitch with auxiliary microswitch

Operating principle When a room thermostat operates, the thermo-electric actuator causes the opening or closing of the valve obturator controlling the thermal carrier fluid. The actuator operates via a wax expansion thermostat heated up by a PTC resistor, which automatically limits the current once reaching regime temperature.

Construction details Control spindle The stainless steel control spindle has a double hydraulic seal consisting of two EPDM O-rings; this means that the upper part of the unit can be replaced even when the system is operating. Variable centre distance The series 678 4-way valve allows for adjustable centre distance between connections from 49 to 63 mm, permitting direct connection to twin parallel type manifolds. Manual opening The manual knob on the valve can be used for any preliminary opening/closing operations. It is removed to fit the thermo-electric actuator by unscrewing the lower metal ring. The valve, with the servo-actuator fitted, is in the normally closed position; for manual opening, remove the thermo-electric actuator. 2-way valve, series 676 + actuator, series 656

Assembly in manifold box When installing the valves in the relevant zone manifold box, adequate space (20 mm) must be left above the servo-actuator head to permit its replacement. To prevent excessively high temperatures being reached, ensure that sufficient air can circulate inside the manifold box. The figure represents installation in inspection box, series 5901 with controlled pressure twin parallel manifold, series 356.

Installation The zone valves must be installed in line with the direction of flow indicated by the arrow on the valve body. The 2-way valve, series 676, can be installed in the flow or return pipework.

Electrical connections with auxiliary microswitch Diagram with pump disconnected The 3-way valve, series 677 and 4-way valve, series 678 must be installed in the flow pipework. The auxiliary microswitch can be used to switch off the pump when heat is not required and the valve is closed. If the pumps power consumption exceeds the capacity of the contacts, equal to 0,8 A, an intermediate relay should be used.
