HAT/RA & HAT/RA-LP

Product catalog summary
Operation: The HAT/RA and HAT/RA-LP inline temperature control valves modulate fluid flow based on temperature changes. As fluid temperature rises within the operating range, the thermal actuator opens the valve. If the temperature exceeds the acceptable range, the valve opens further to allow more fluid discharge. Conversely, as the temperature drops, the valve closes to reduce flow, maintaining a constant fluid temperature despite varying conditions. At startup, the HAT/RA-LP valve is closed except for control leakage, allowing the actuator to sense temperature changes.
Benefits: These valves control cooling fluid return temperatures, are self-operating without power or signal, maintain constant discharge temperatures, improve system efficiency, are unaffected by pressure variations, conserve water, and feature a Thermoloid® thermal actuator. They are made of stainless steel, are compact, corrosion-resistant, and have a ram-type plug for reliable shut-off.
Design Features: The valves operate in a narrow temperature band, have two wrench flats for easy installation, and an LP option to sense upstream temperature changes.
Applications: The HAT/RA reverse acting valve is suitable for regulating cooling media flow in applications requiring economical heat removal. The HAT/RA-LP valves are ideal for controlling cooling water in compressors, die-casting equipment, engines, heat exchangers, welding equipment, electrical equipment, and molding equipment.
Ordering Notes: Various part numbers are available for different port sizes and materials. Full open temperatures range from 40°F to 210°F, with closing temperatures typically 10°F below opening temperatures. Leak port flow rates and seal material compatibility are specified, with EPDM and Viton options available. A #20 mesh strainer is recommended.
Parts & Materials: The valves consist of a stainless steel body, brass or stainless steel actuator carrier, thermal actuator, operating spring, EPDM or Viton body seal, stainless steel plug, PTFE seat seal ring, and stainless steel LP washer.
Dimensions & Capacities: The document provides detailed dimensions, weight, port size, CV, maximum operating pressure, and temperature limits for different valve sizes.

HAT/RA & HAT/RA-LP INLINE TEMPERATURE CONTROL VALVES BENEFITS • Controls cooling fluid return temperatures - ideal for glycol and water • Self-operating, no power or signal required • Maintains constant discharge temperatures • Improves system efficiency • Unaffected by pressure variations • Conserves water DESIGN FEATURES • • • • • • • • Exclusive Thermoloid® thermal actuator All stainless steel body, fittings, spring, and plug Compact low mass - fast response Corrosion resistant - long service life Ram-type plug for reliable shut-off Operates in narrow temperature band Two wrench flats for easy installation Leak port (LP) option senses changing upstream temperature The HAT/RA reverse acting valve may be used to regulate the flow of cooling water, glycol or other cooling media in applications requiring economical removal of heat from equipment or a process. Since the HAT/RA valves open on rising temperatures, they can be used in many thermal relief valve applications. SAMPLE APPLICATION HAT/RA-LP valves are ideal for controlling cooling water for compressors and die-casting equipment, engines, heat exchangers, welding equipment, electrical equipment, and molding equipment. OPERATION As the fluid temperature increases to within the operating range of the HAT/RA and HAT/RA-LP, the thermal actuator modulates the valve open. If the fluid temperature is above the acceptable range, the valve will continue to modulate open allowing additional fluid discharge. As the outlet temperature falls, the valve then modulates toward the closed position, reducing flow. This modulating action maintains a relatively constant fluid temperature even as operating conditions vary. At start-up, the HAT/RA-LP is closed except for its control leakage, which allows a small flow so that the actuator inside the valve can sense the changing equipment temperature.
