3-Way and 4-Way Valves

VRG130 & VRG140

The ESBE VRG series of valves are designed for mixing and diverting water to the appropriate temperature to meet the zone or system requirements within heating and cooling systems.

The VRG valve replaces the MG and G series of valves and provides additional operational features. By either mixing or diverting, the fluid temperature leaving the valve is regulated by the VRG in either a manual operation or electronic when coupled with the ARA600 Series or 90 Series electronic motorized actuator.

 

Features and benefits

Excellent performance in valve regulation.

Lowest internal leakage of flow @ 14.5psi Δp:

  • mixing <0.05%
  • diverting <0.02%.

Compact valve design.

Suitable for closed loop heating or chilled systems, maximum 50% glycol.

VRG valve body material composed of dezincification resistant brass (DZR).

Products

The ESBE VRG Series 3-way & 4-way mixing valves includes a range of compact, low leakage valves. For easy manual operation the valves are equipped with non-slip knobs and end stops for an operational angle of 90°. The valve position scale can be turned over and rotated allowing many different mounting positions. Together with ARA600 and Series 90 actuators, the VRG valves are easily automated and have excellent regulating accuracy due to the unique valve to actuator interface.

*Note: If 90 series actuators are used on valves 2” and below, mounting kit 193B1616 must be used.
