FlowCon Green
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTION
The FlowCon Green inserts are for use with three
different FlowCon valve housings, either:
FlowCon A (DN15/20/25),
FlowCon AB (DN15/20/25/32) or
FlowCon ABV (DN15/20/25/32/40).
Install the selected valve housing as called for in
the design drawings. Although the performance of
the valve is not affected either way, industry stan-
dards call for balancing devices to be installed on
the downstream side of the terminal unit. Especial-
ly for the ABV with its isolation ball valve, it is re-
commended to ensure the isolation valve is down-
stream of the balancing device.
INSTALL THE VALVE HOUSING WITH THE FLOW
DIRECTIONAL ARROW POINTING IN THE COR-
RECT DIRECTION.
The FlowCon A valve (Model Nos. A15.X, A20.X
and A25.I.K) is available with fixed female-by-
female threaded connections, i.e. figure 1.
Figure 1
The thread standard for the A model is either
ISO 228, which is a straight metric thread (com-
patible with BS-2779) or NPT threading standard,
depending on the product number ordered (except
for DN25 which currently is only ISO).
For all threaded connections please clear threads
on both valve and piping of debris. Sealant such as
pipe dope or teflon tape is recommended.

WHEN USING HEMP AS PIPE SEALANT, EN-
SURE NO STRANDS ARE LEFT IN THE VALVE
OR PIPING.
The FlowCon AB valve (Model Nos. AB15.X,
AB20.X, AB25.X and AB32.X) is similarly available
with female-by-female threaded connections, i.e.
figure 2.
Figure 2
The thread standard for the AB model is equal to
what is available for the A model.
For all threaded connections please clear threads
on both valve and piping of debris. Sealant such as
pipe dope or teflon tape is recommended. WHEN
USING HEMP AS PIPE SEALANT, ENSURE NO
STRANDS ARE LEFT IN THE VALVE OR PIPING.
Pressure/temperature fittings (p/t plugs) are
available upon request for the AB valve. Before
finger mounting the p/t plugs in the body tappings,
please seal the threads of the p/t plugs (DO NOT
OVER TIGHTEN). Alternatively to p/t plugs, the
valve body can be ordered with plugs for the body
tappings. Each plug is sealed by a gasket.
The FlowCon ABV valve (Model No. ABV1 and
ABV2) is available with double union end con-
nections, i.e. figure 3.
