- Quick installation, reduced on-site manpower and costs
- Quick connection (only 4 connections required)
- Avoids installation errors
- Semplified commissioning Benefits for planners
- Simplified solution for the design of all required components
- Avoids installation errors Compact kit for terminal units (fan coils) R280KC Datasheet 1114EN 04/2024 Preassembled compact kit combining the components required for balancing, control, flushing and commissioning of HVAC terminal units (fan coils, chilled beams, etc.) with the main distribution network. The kit consists of a diverting ball valve to bypass the unit, a full-port ball valve with integrated filter, a pressure independent control valve (PICV), a drain cock and four pressure ports to measure the differential pressure and the flow rate. Thanks to the two ball valves it is possible to clean the filter and operate on the unit with no need to drain the entire system. The kit is quick to install thanks to the use of only four connections which also prevent possible errors. Its pressure independent control valve (PICV) enables to regulate and keep constant the flow rate in the terminal unit when the differential pressure of the main circuit varies. The terminal unit can also be isolated and the flow can be bypassed through the ball valves installed. The water flow entering the terminal unit, which also runs through the PICV, is filtered by the filter integrated in the shut-off ball valve. The drain cock drains the water during maintenance and flushing operations. R280KC VIEW OF INTERNAL COMPONENTS R280KC WITH INSULATION AND ACTUATOR ASSEMBLED PRESENTATION

3 Pressure independent control valve (PICV)
4 Drain cock
5 Probe holder
Diverting ball valve (Ref.1) The diverting ball valve provides a bypassing function thanks to the special shape of its ball. The two ball vaves included in the kit are full port, to limit the pressure loss. Ball valve with integrated filter (Ref. 2) The valve includes a filter inside its ball. Close the valve to remove the filter without draining the system (see “Maintenance”). The filter features a 500 μm filtering capacity while the valve is a full-port model (DN25) that guarantees the highest flow rate. Pressure independent control valve (PICV) (Ref. 3) The PICV provides top-notch energy efficiency and state-of-the-art control of the flow rate. It is a 3-in-1 valve (DPCV, balancing and control) for quick and convenient commissioning with no setting design required by the planner. The PICV can be controlled automatically through a proportional actuator (0...10 V) to set the flow rate within the working range defined by the cartridge calibration, or through an ON-OFF actuator to shut off the circuit. These two control options enable the PICV to perfectly adapt itself to the type of control required by the system.

Via per Alzo 39, 28017 San Maurizio d’Opaglio (NO) Italy consulenza.prodotti@giacomini.com +39 0322 923372 - giacomini.com Installation The R280KC kit is provided fully preassembled inside the insulation shell. The kit must be installed upstream of the terminal unit (fan coil) and it includes the main components required for state- of-the-art operation. It can be installed in any direction, yet the ball valve with integrated filter and the PICV with its actuator cannot be installed upside down. Reversibility of supply and return circuit NOTE. All kits are reversible except for the R280KCY003 kit, which is not reversible. The position of the supply and return circuits can be reversed to meet the system requirements. 1) Default configuration: supply on top and return on bottom. 2) Remove the kit from the insulation shell. 3) Loosen nuts (B) and (F), then remove the PICV (C) and the valve with integrated filter (G) from the assembly. Turn the diverting valve (A) by 180°. Reassemble the PICV (C) and the valve with integrated filter (G) reversing their position while making sure to invert the installation position of both pressure ports (D) and (I), caps (E) and (H), and then turn the drain cock (L) by 180°. Turn the two insulation shells upside down. The front shell will become the back shell and vice versa. Reassemble the closing caps of insulation shells (M), (N), (O), (P) and (Q) in the corresponding new positions. 4) Replace the kit in the insulation shell. 5) New configuration: supply on the bottom and return on the top.

WARING. During normal operation make sure the drain cock is closed with its cap on. CLOSED CLOSED OPEN OPEN OPEN CLOSED DRAIN OPEN DRAIN CLOSED 2) System flushing / Maintenance The fan coil can be completely isolated to flush the system by closing the two ball valves (Components - Ref.1 and 2). This will prevent debris from entering the fan coil and the PICV (Components - Ref.3). CLOSED CLOSED OPEN OPEN OPEN CLOSED DRAIN OPEN DRAIN CLOSED 3) Fan coil flushing with reversed flow Return ball valve open (Components - Ref.1), supply ball valve with integrated filter closed (Components - Ref.2) and drain cock open (Components - Ref.4). CLOSED CLOSED OPEN OPEN OPEN CLOSED DRAIN OPEN DRAIN CLOSED NOTE. Flushing and maintenance operations comply with the BG 29/2021 (BSRIA) guidelines. HOW IT WORKS
Prior to commissioning, the system must be flushed according to the indications described in “Operation”. Commissioning The pressure independent control valve (PICV) (Components - Ref.3) is equipped with a dual-scale flow rate setting:
- L (LOW): for low flow rates
- H (HIGH): for high flow rates To set the valve to the required flow rate, turn the valve stem clockwise or counterclockwise using the R73PY010 key (included with the kit) till reaching the corresponding value printed on the bonnet plastic disk (refer to the table below to identify it.) Change over from one setting scale to the other can be implemented at any time, even when the system is on; this enables to select the required max flow rate without replacing the valve. The dual scale guarantees a more accurate regulation as the controlled flow rate range is narrowed down and does not require the use of cartridges with different characteristics. L 1 5 7

Maintenance Check the kit at least once a year upon seasonal change over from heating to cooling. During inspection, check the components below:
- Ball valve filter: rinse under running water (see “Cleaning the filter”.)
- Actuator: check its operation; should it fail to work with proper wiring, replace the actuator.
- Ball valves: check operations of the ball valves. NOTE. For periodical maintenance, also refer to the local standards. Cleaning the filter 1) Close the ball valve with integrated filter (Components - Ref.2). 2) Loosen the octagonal cap of the ball valve with integrated filter using a 30-mm wrench. 3) Remove the filter and rinse it under running water. 4) Re-insert the filter inside the valve making sure the filter hole (A) points in the opposite direction of the flow (shown by an arrow on the valve body) (B). 5) Tighten the octagonal cap (max torque 10 Nm), open the ball valve and resume regular operation of the system.
