The V46 is a pressure actuated, modulating valve that is suitable for use either on closed or open systems. Direct acting valves open on pressure increase. This type of valve is primarily used to regulate the flow of water or glycol to a water cooled condenser on a refrigeration system. Reverse acting valves open on pressure decrease and are generally used for bypass or heat pump application.
