Valves and actuators
Pump groups for boilers and heating systems
Regulus CS Pump Groups make a boiler installation easier because they contain all the important components necessary for boiler protection and proper operation of space heating and DHW heating. They are designed to be mounted directly on the boiler outlet pipe or on a wall.
List of pump groups:
-
CS TSV VDM Group
-
CS VMX Group
-
CS TSV Group
CS TSV VDM Group
CS TSV VDM Group is intended for solid-fuel boilers with an accumulation tank, DHW heating enabled
CS TSV VDM contains:
-
circulation pump
-
boiler pump
-
TSV2 thermostatic mixing valve
-
2 ball valves for connection to a heating system
-
3-way mixing valve for a heating system
-
mixing valve actuator (the version with an actuator only, code 8118)
CS TSV maintains the return temperature at 65°C, preventing condensation and clogging the boiler by tar. Water for a heating system (i.e. its heating output) is mixed by a 3-way mixing valve, controlled either manually or by an electronic controller. The heat surplus is stored in an accumulation tank and then supplied automatically when the boiler goes off.

CS VMX Group
CS VMX Group is intended for all kinds of boilers. Both heating water and boiler water get mixed without throttling
CS VMX contains:
-
circulation pump
-
2 ball valves with thermometers for connection to a heating system
-
4-way mixing valve for both a heating system and a boiler
-
mixing valve actuator (the version with an actuator only, code 8118)
-
automatic heating system bypass
CS VMX makes it possible to control both the return temperature of a solid-fuel boiler and the output of a heating system using one 4-way valve. Thanks to throttle-free regulation it can be used also for boilers with an integrated pump (usually gas-fired ones). Noise of closing thermostatic valves can be also eliminated using a bypass with an adjustable pressure difference.

-
TSV2 thermostatic mixing valve
-
2 ball valves for connection
CS TSV maintains the return temperature at 65°C, preventing condensation and clogging the boiler by tar. Heating water is mixed automatically to a temperature corresponding to the boiler output. It can work at a low boiler output e.g. with a boiler temperature of 75/65°C and a heating system temperature of 50/40°C. The heating output is controlled directly on the boiler - e.g. by an RT2 thermostatic regulator or by a room controller.

Brass thermostatic mixing valves for heating systems
In the process of burning, among others also water releases from burning fuels in the form of steam. When the flue gas temperature is high enough, the steam comes out through a chimney together with flue gas. However, if the flue gas cools down at a certain spot, condensation occurs. Condensate is formed, containing further combustion products that can be very aggressive, esp. when burning wood or solid fuels, and can cause corrosion very quickly as well as clog heat transfer surfaces.
Corrosion will not occur if the heat transfer surfaces are warm enough because condensation will not occur above certain temperatures. The heat transfer surfaces will be warmer and their service life longer. TSV1 and TSV2 thermostatic mixing valves mix cold return water with hot water from the boiler outlet. Thus the whole heat exchanger (heat transfer surfaces) is kept warmer, at temperatures that will not allow condensation to occur and so clogging and corrosion will be prevented

Main characteristics :
These valves are powered by an electric motor and can assume two operating positions depending on whether or not the motor is activated. One or two auxiliary switches can be installed on request and be actuated when the valve switches. Valves are equipped with an external lever for manually positioning the shut-off ball in its central position. |
Operation :
When it is without electricity the valve is positioned as in fig.1 : the valve is closed. When the electrical supply is activated the motor overcomes the force of the spring and moves the ball from way A to an intermediate position in about 10 sec. and the shut-off ball remains in this position until the electrical power supply is deactivated( fig.2). When the electrical power supply is deactivated the return spring brings the shut-off ball back to the way A in about 4 sec. |
Without electric power supply

|
Using the manual lever:
The lever is positioned on the side of the servomotor that permits manual positioning of the shut-off ball in an intermediate position(fig.3). This is useful when filling or emptying the hydraulic system. The lever reset, from manual to automatic, takes place automatically whenever the valve is activated by electricity.

Application example as 2-way zone valve
The fig. illustrates a typical installation layout for 2-way zone valves. It is necessary to use SF valve with a micro-limit switch in order to stop the pump when all the valves are closed. Also other parts available in the market are necessary such as differential by-pass valves to avoid bothersome noise and to ensure a constant pump pressure. |
Application example giving priority to the hot water heater
This system including two-way valves is used when the delivery rate at the system is different from the hot water storage tank requirements. In this case valves with different outlets can be chosen.

Application example as 3-way zone valve
The zone room thermostat controls opening and closure of the respective SF valves. When there is no demand it shuts off power to the valve which closes the zone and recirculates water back to the boiler return. Installing a meter as shown in the diagram permits efficient subdivision of operating costs. The recirculation pipeline should be balanced to avoid excess flow rate variations in other circuits during valve operation. |

Operation :
All moving parts and the seals of the valve are assembled in a cartridge. O-rings on the outer surface of the piston guarantee a hermetic seal of valve paths. When the valve stem is in its low position, and path B is closed, flow takes place in paths A and AB, passing through the holes in the cylindrical shut-off. When the stem is in its high position the flow in path A is blocked and takes place in paths B and AB. Switchover from one path to the other takes about 6 seconds.
Using the manual lever:
A lever is positioned on the side of the servomotor that permits manual positioning of the shut-off ball in an intermediate position. The manual lever can only be manoeuvred when it is in its upper position. The valve can be opened by firmly pressing the manual lever both down and in until it locks in the intermediate position. Paths A and B are open in this position. This is useful when filling or emptying the pipeline system or when there is a power failure.

Main characteristics :
VMR valves are motorised valves used in home applications and small installations to control the flow of hot and cold water. They can be used as shunt or mixing valves in centralised heating or cooling systems. The valve, thanks to its cylindrical shut-off, shunts flow independent from the different pressures between the various paths. This shut-off can have two operating positions depending on how the electric motor that moves is powered. The head of the valve can be removed without opening up the plumbing system: this makes valve maintenance quick and flexible. An auxiliary microswitch can be installed on request and be activated when the valve is switched. Valves have an external lever for manually positioning the shut-off in its central position.
Auxiliary switches
A two-pole microswitch (M1 version) can be mounted on all versions. The microswitch M1S cannot be installed in versions which do not mount them originally.
Electrical connections
There are two types of electrical connections depending on the type of low voltage exetrnal control: |
* |
· two-pole SPDT three-wire external control: when there is a request for hot water the control unit (SPDT) closes the NO contact, the valve closes path B and opens path A. When path A is completely open the cam closes travel limit microswitch C1 and opens travel limit microswitch C2. When the demand for water is satisfied the control closes contact NC, powering the valve through C1 and causing closure of path A. When path A is completely closed the cam closes C2 and opens C1. The valve is now ready for the next request for hot water. |
* |
· single-pole SPST two-wire external control (2 wires and common): when there is a request for hot water the control unit (SPST) closes contact N, that powers the relay which in turn closes the contact NO (microswitch C3).This causes the closure of path B and opening of path A. When path A is totally open the cam closes travel limit microswitch C1 and opens microswitch C2. When the demand for water is satisfied the control opens contact N and consequently the relay is no longer powered and contact NC (microswitch C3) is closed. This causes the closure of path A and opening of path B. When path A is totally closed the cam closes C2 and opens C1. The valve is now ready for the next request for hot water. |
