How Does a PICV Valve for FCU Improve Energy Efficiency?

Fan coil units, or FCUs, are the quiet workhorses of most commercial buildings. They sit in ceilings, behind walls, and inside plant rooms, delivering heating and cooling to offices, hotels, hospitals, and apartment blocks day after day. Yet the valve controlling water flow into each FCU has a bigger impact on energy performance than most people realise. This is where a PICV valve for FCU applications comes into its own. PICV stands for pressure independent control valve, and it has quickly become the preferred choice for engineers who want reliable comfort without wasting energy or water.In this article, we will look at how pressure-independent control technology works, why it matters so much for FCU systems, and how it helps building owners cut energy costs while improving comfort for occupants.

A short step-by-step tutorial on how to how to install the FlowCon removable PICV insert within a live system

This tutorial covers an insert installation in a valve housing within a live system after flushing with a blank cap OR replacing an already installed PICV insert. Please be aware that this quick installation guide is only applicable to FlowCon Pressure Independent Control Valves!

Putting The Flowcon Fn.0.2 Actuator To Work

To drive the actuator fully open, flip Dip Switch 6 from the OFF position to the ON position then back to the OFF position. The LED will now flash Red and Green. As well as driving the actuator open, this routine prepares the actuator for recalibration. The actuator will close with the LED flashing Green. Once closed, the actuator will be recalibrated, and the LED will be solid Green.

The FN.0.2 Actuator is designed to fit the following FlowCon Green Pressure Independent Control Valves: • Green.EQ0 PICV – 3.4mm stroke, closing time 75 sec • Green.0 PICV – 3.4 mm stroke, closing time 75 sec • Green.1 PICV – 3.4 mm stroke, closing time 75 sec • Green.1HF PICV – 3.4 mm stroke, closing time 75 sec • Green.2 PICV – 5.2 mm stroke, closing time 114.4 sec
