The innovative design of the Bell & Gossett Ultra Setter
TM
introduces a modulating control
component that retains 100% authority at all times. With the Ultra Setter
TM
, there are two
independent movements for the presetting and the modulating function. During
presetting, that is selecting the desired flow rate, the inlet area moves radially without
interfering with the length of the stroke. During modulating, the inlet area moves linearly
taking advantage of the full stroke.
While the actuator provides proportional modulation irrespective of the preset flow, the
automatic balancing cartridge guarantees that the flow never exceeds the maximum
preset flow. Regardless of pressure fluctuations in the system, the maximum flow rate is
kept constant once the minimum differential pressure listed in the product submittal is
met, up to 90 PSI (600 kPa).
The flow rate of the valve can be set according to the convenient GPM flow rate scale next
to the valve stem.
Select the appropriate size Ultra Setter
TM
pressure independent balancing control valve,
normally line size, for the required flow rate. Ideally, Ultra Setter
TM
valves should be
selected such that they operate at about 80% of their maximum flow, enabling them to
deliver spare capacity, if required.
The scale is for the adjustment of flow. If you want to close the branch line, use an isolation
valve in conjunction with the Ultra Setter
TM
valve.
