Description
Honeywell VBF5013B1029 Overview
The Honeywell VBF5013B1029 is a heavy-duty, 4-inch flanged 3-way ball valve engineered for demanding commercial and industrial HVAC hydronic systems. Designed to handle chilled water, hot water, and fluid mixtures containing up to 50% glycol, this valve delivers reliable flow control across a wide range of building automation and hydronic heating and cooling applications.
Key Features
- 4-inch flanged end connections for straightforward installation into existing piping systems
- 3-way configuration supports mixing or diverting flow paths to optimize system performance
- 240 PSI maximum safe operating pressure for high-pressure hydronic applications
- 160 Cv flow coefficient ensures excellent flow capacity through large-diameter piping
- Compatible with chilled water, hot water, and glycol solutions up to 50% concentration
- Cast iron body provides superior durability and long service life in commercial environments
- Teflon (PTFE) seat offers excellent chemical resistance and low-friction sealing performance
- 316 stainless steel stem, plug, ball, and disc for outstanding corrosion resistance
- Equal percentage (A-AB) flow characteristic for precise modulating control
- Linear (B-AB) flow characteristic for proportional flow response
