7 New Honeywell VP531 Pneumatic Valves From DtiCorp.com

Fort Lauderdale, FL (I-Newswire) February 5, 2011 - Fort Lauderdale, FL - Popular Honeywell online retailer DtiCorp.com (http://www.DtiCorp.com) is introducing 7 brand new Honeywell VP531 Pneumatic Valves. The VP531A,C Terminal Unit Valves are normally-open, single-seated valves that provide proportional control of steam or hot/cold water in terminal units. These valves are available with threaded NPT or soldered end connections. The VP531A is intended for control of water at a maximum of 180°F (82°C). The VP531C is intended for water or steam at a maximum of 240°F (116°C).


The valve should be installed so the stem is anywhere between upright and horizontal. The actuator cannot be lower than the body. The direction of flow must be in the same direction as the arrow on the valve body. Be sure to allow enough clearance around the actuator top for servicing the valve after installation.

Series 2 VP531C Valves are built with a green (2-5 psi) actuator spring. Shipped with the valve is a loose orange (3-10 psi) spring. If desired, replace the green spring with the orange. To make this change remove the cover fastener. Before using the orange spring, make sure it can provide adequate close off for the application.

Connecting the valve without removing the internal assembly can overheat and damage the plug and packing beyond repair. Remove the top and insert assembly before connecting the VP531 soldered body valve. The valve is shipped with a loose bonnet nut allowing easy removal of the top and insert assembly. Lift the assembly out before soldering the valve into place. When soldering is completed, replace the top and insert assembly and tighten the bonnet nut firmly enough to compress the copper washer seal (35 to 45 ft-lb torque).
