Clorius Controls’ new thermostatic 3-Way valve is unique due to its internal sensor technology. The thermostatic valve is ideal for controlling fluid temperature, in cooling and heat recovery systems, and other temperature controlling applications such as: compressors, industrial engines, marine, power generation, renewable energy, among others.
The valve’s compact and robust design enables easy handling and reliable temperature control. The thermostatic valve uses the principle of expanding wax, which undergoes large expansion rates within a relatively narrow temperature range. The self-acting element activates a cone, which directs the flow.
All Clorius thermostatic valves are factory set at a predetermined temperature and can be altered, by replacing the temperature sensing element with one designed to operate within a different temperature range. A distinct advantage of Clorius’ thermostatic valve is that it does not require external power sources. A diverting valve receives input flow at common port and diverts the flow to one or two output ports. A mixing valve receives input flow at two ports and directs the mixed flow output through the third port, which is the common port.
