LED for indicating the operating state Control The MVS661..N refrigerant valve can be driven by Siemens or third-party controllers that deliver a DC 0/2...10 V or DC 0/4...20 mA output signal. For optimum control performance, we recommend a 4-wire connection between con- troller and valve.
MVS661..N refrigerant valves are supplied fully calibrated. Execute a calibration after replacing the electronics, when the red LED is on or When is a calibration when the valve is leaking (at seat). required? 4 / 16 Siemens Modulating refrigerant valves, PS53 CE2N4717en Building Technologies 10.11.2011...
For straightforward valve sizing, refer to the tables for the relevant application (from page 9). For accurate valve sizing, we recommend to make use of the valve sizing software "Refrigeration VASP", available from your local Siemens office. Notes The refrigeration capacity Q is calculated by multiplying the mass flow by the specific enthalpy differential found in the h, log p-chart for the relevant refrigerant.
The flame should be directed away from the valve. During soldering, cool the valve with a wet cloth, for example, to ensure that it does not become too hot. 6 / 16 Siemens Modulating refrigerant valves, PS53 CE2N4717en Building Technologies 10.11.2011...
