Options & Features (See Specification Sheet For Full List):
W94 Series For Mixing & Diverting
The W91/W94 Self-Operating Temperature Regulator is a mechanically operated device designed to regulate system temperature by modulating the flow of a heating or cooling fluid in response to temperature changes; requires no external power source.
Mixing & Diverting: 3-Way Valves are used for mixing two flows together, or for diverting a flow to or around a device (bypass). In order to produce consistent flow quantity for stable operation, the pressure drop across both flow paths (inlet to outlet) must be equal. Do not use for steam applications.
The W91 & W94 Self-Operating Temperature Regulators are the preferred choice of original equipment manufacturers, mechanical contractors and specifying engineers. They require no external power source and are ideal for regulating the temperature of tanks, process streams and various types of industrial equipment. The Actuator is noted for its rugged die-cast aluminum housing, fully-enclosed bellows assembly and internal over-temperature range protection.
- Model W91 Non-Indicating (Without Indicating Dial) features a lower profile and should be specified where space constraints may be an issue.
- Model W94 Temperature Indicating (With Indicating Dial) will allow the operator to verify the process temperature and to aid in temperature adjustment.
How It Works
The W91/W94 Temperature Regulator is a fully self-contained unit requiring no external power source (i.e., compressed air or electricity). Regulation takes place when the sensing element (bulb) of the thermal system is exposed to changes in temperature. The thermal system is charged with a predetermined amount of vapor fill, which, when heated, will cause the bellows within the unit’s actuator housing to expand. The valve action is either In-To-Close for Heating or In-To-Open for Cooling.
3-Way Valves are used for mixing two flows together, or for diverting a flow to or around a device (bypass). In order to produce consistent flow quantity for stable operation, the pressure drop across both flow paths (inlet to outlet) must be nearly equal. The Sleeve-Type (common port on the bottom) is most commonly used for diverting applications; however, due to its design, it can also be used for mixing applications (NOT for steam use). It is also suitable for water or glycol type service, up to a maximum temperature of 300°F. A higher temperature O-ring for use with other fluids, such as oil, or for temperatures up to 410°F, is available. Consult factory.
Selection / Sizing / Capacities
Actuator Selection: The recommended working span for W91 & W94 Actuators typically falls within the upper third of the nominal range. Single-Seat In-To-Close, all Double-Seat, and all 3-Way valves have a recommended working span in this part of the nominal range. Using the valve in the recommended working span improves temperature response time of the system.
