B2KL: 6-way ball valve with male thread, PN16

Product catalog summary

Overview: The B2KL 6-way ball valve is designed for efficient control in heating and cooling circuits within a 4-pipe system. It features a male thread according to ISO 228 and allows for Kvs selection through exchangeable orifice plates. It is compatible with SAUTER valve actuators AKM 115(S) and AKF 112, 113(S).

Specifications:

Nominal Pressure: PN16
Valve Characteristic: Quasi-linear
Leakage Rate: Class A as per EN 12266-1
Total Angle of Rotation: 90° (valve closed at 45°)
Operating Temperature: 5...90 °C

Standards and Directives: The valve complies with EN 764, EN 1333 for pressure and temperature data, and EN 60534 for flow parameters. It meets CE conformity under PED 97/23/EC, category IV, fluid group II.

Types and Kvs Values:

B2KL015F400: DN 15, G¾"B, 1.25 m³/h, 0.98 kg
B2KL020F400: DN 20, G1"B, 4.25 m³/h, 1.77 kg

Orifice plates are available to adjust Kvs values.

Accessories: Includes flat-sealing screw fittings, pliers for changing orifice plates, fitting brackets, and strainers in gun metal for various diameters.

Operation: The valve is suitable for regulating heated/chilled ceilings and fan coils. It can replace multiple 2-way valves and actuators, simplifying system design. The valve's 90° rotation allows for seamless changeover between heating and cooling.

Material Composition: The body is made of CW617W Cu Zn 40 Pb2, and the stem and ball are made of CW614N Cu Zn 39 Pb3. The seat is PTFE, and the O-ring is EPDM.

Installation Notes: The valve should not be installed in a suspended position to prevent damage from condensate. Compatibility with water mixed with glycol or inhibitors should be confirmed with the manufacturer.

Flow-rate Chart: Provides a detailed flow-rate chart for various Kvs values, indicating the relationship between flow rate and pressure drop.

Dimension Drawings: Includes detailed dimension drawings for combinations with AKM 115(S) and AKF 112, 113(S) actuators.

Product data sheet Fitting position ►Do not install the 6-way ball valve in a suspended position, because condensate, dripping water etc. may penetrate and damage the actuator! Using with water When using water mixed with glycol or an inhibitor, the compatibility of the materials and seals used in the 6-way ball valve should be clarified with the manufacturer. The material list shown below may be used here. When using glycol we recommend a concentration of 20% to 50%. Right of amendment reserved © 2016 Fr. Sauter AG
