zone valve
A zone valve is a device used in building heating, cooling and ventilation systems to regulate the flow of hot or cold fluid (mostly water) through pipes to different parts of the building or zones. Its purpose is to enable independent temperature control in different parts of the building, which contributes to more energy-efficient management of thermal comfort and energy savings.
Zone valve definition and operation:
A zone valve is a valve that allows or restricts the flow of hot or cold liquid to individual zones or rooms in a building. It has an adjustable mechanism that allows you to increase or decrease the flow of liquid according to the temperature requirements in the given area.
How to use:
Temperature control: Zone valves are used to control the temperature in different parts of the building as needed. For example, if a higher temperature is needed in one room, a zone valve will open and allow the flow of warm liquid, while in other rooms the valves can be closed to reduce the flow of heat.
Energy efficiency: By using zone valves to distribute heat or cool as needed, energy waste can be minimized when not all rooms need to be heated or cooled at once.
Individual control: Zone valves allow individual temperature control in individual rooms or zones, which contributes to increasing the comfort of building residents.
Where it is used:
Zone valves are often used in heating and cooling systems in buildings such as homes, commercial buildings, industrial facilities and more. Wherever it is necessary to regulate the temperature in different rooms or zones, zone valves can be used to effectively manage thermal comfort and save energy. They are a common feature in modern heating and cooling control systems.
