Pilot operated main valves for regulating pressure and temperature, type PM

Introduction

PM valves are pilot operated main valves


for regulating pressure and temperature in
refrigeration systems.
PM main valves can be used on the high and lowpressure sides, in wet and dry suction lines, and
in liquid lines without phase change (i.e. where
no expansion takes place in the valve).
The function of a PM valve depends solely on
the pilot pressure applied to the valve, either
from pilot valves or in the form of external pilot
pressure.
PM 1 has one connection for pilot pressure/pilot
valve, while PM 3 has three pilot pressure/pilot
valve connections.
The associated Danfoss pilot valves can either
be screwed direct into the main valve or be
connected via an external pilot line. Several pilot
valves can be used on one main valve to give a
large number of dierent functions.

Features

Can be used for all normal, non-ammable


refrigerants, including R 717, and noncorrosive gases/liquids - assuming seals of the
correct material are used.
Large range of anges with connection
dimensions in accordance with standards: DIN,
ANSI, SOC, SA and FPT.
Performs as a multifunction valve when
several pilot valves are connected to the same
main valve.

The PM valve top cover has a pressure gauge


connection so that the inlet pressure can be
measured when, for example, main valve
function must be set or adjusted in relation to the
system regulation performed by the pilot valves.
The spindle in the top cover of the main PM valve
can be used to manually open and close the valve
(although PM 65-125 cannot be opened fully in
this way).
The main valve bottom plug can be replaced by
an AKS 45 electronic position indicator so that
the position of the regulating cone can be read
electronically.

The valve has a pressure gauge connection so


that inlet pressure can be measured.
The valve has a built-in lter and a teon seat
to give excellent tightness.
The PM main valve top cover can be oriented
in any direction without the function of pilot
valves being aected.
The valve can be equipped with an AKS 45
electronic position indicator as an accessory.

All pilot valves can be used on all sizes of PM


main valves. They can be screwed direct into
the main valve so that there is no need for
weld or solder connections, or separate pilot
lines.

Design

Connections
There is a very wide range of connection
possibilities with PM main valves:
Welding, DIN (2448)
Welding, ANSI (B 36.10)
Welding socket, ANSI (B 16.11)
Solder connection, DIN (2856)
Solder connection, ANSI (B 16.22)
FPT internal thread, NPT
(ANSI/ASME B 1.20.1)

PM 1 will accept one pilot valve mounted direct


on the valve, while PM 3 will accept three pilot
valves.
Two of the PM 3 pilot valve connections (S1 and
S2) are series connected while the third pilot
connection (P) is connected in parallel. Thus,
with dierent combinations of pilot valves it
is possible to obtain a very large number of
dierent functions from one PM main valve.

PM main valves are designed as pilot operated


valves that can be fully opened with a very small
dierential pressure (0.2 bar/
2.9 psi).
The valve design means that it will only fully close
in the direction of ow.
Pressure Equipment Directive (PED)
The PM-valves are approved in accordance with
the European standard specied in the Pressure
Equipment Directive and are CE marked.

The PM main valve has a logarithmic or


v-shaped throttle cone that ensures optimum
regulating accuracy.
The PM main valve top cover can be oriented in
any direction without the function of pilot valves
being aected.

PM1

The PM main valve is a pilot operated valve


whose function is determined by the pilot valve
used. The main valve with pilot valve(s) controls
refrigerant ow by modulation or on/o in
accordance with the pilot valve or main valve
status.
The degree of opening of the main valve
is determined by the pressure dierence
(dierential pressure) between pressure p2, which
acts on top of the servo piston (24), and pressure
p3, which acts on the underside of the servo
piston.
If this pressure dierence is 0, the main valve will
be fully closed.
If the pressure dierence is 0.2 bar (2.9 psi) or
more, the main valve will be fully open.
At pressure dierences (p2 - p3) between
0.07 bar (1 psi) and 0.2 bar (2.9 psi), the degree of
opening will be correspondingly proportional.
The shape of the throttle cone (12) is logarithmic,
which gives an ideal regulation characteristic
to pilot operated main valves. Because of valve
body channel (1b), pressure p3 acting on the
underside of the servo piston (24) is equal to the
main valve discharge pressure p4.
The degree of opening of the main valve is thus
controlled by the application of a pressure, p2,
on top of the servo piston which is equal to or
greater than the discharge pressure, p4.

PM3

Inlet pressure p1 is led, via the drilled channels


(1a, 40a, 40b, 40c, 40d) in the valve body (1)
and cover (40) through the individual pilot valves
and onto the top of the servo piston (24).
The degree of opening of the individual pilot
valves determines the size of pressure p2 and
thus the degree of opening of the main valve,
i.e. the equalisation hole (21a) in the servo
piston (24) ensures that pressure p2 is balanced
in accordance with the degree of opening of the
pilot valve.
Note:
When main valve type PM 3 is used with an external
pilot connection (61), the internal pilot pressure will
be shut o.
The PM 1 main valve can be tted with just one
screwed-on pilot valve. The degree of opening
of the main valve will be in accordance with the
control status from the pilot valve.
PM 1 is fully closed when the pilot valve is fully
closed and fully open when the pilot valve is
fully open. Otherwise the degree of opening of
the main valve is proportional to the degree of
opening of the pilot valve.
The PM 3 main valve can be tted with either
one, two, or three pilot valves so that up to three
regulating functions are possible.

p2 = p4 closed
p2 = p4 + 0.2 bar (2.9 psi)~ fully open
p4 p2 p4 + 0.2 bar (2.9 psi) ~ proportional
degree of opening.
The maximum pressure, p2, that can be built
up on the top of the servo piston (24) normally
corresponds to the pressure, p1, acting on the
main valve inlet side.

Design, function
(continued)

The relations between the functions of the


screwed-in pilot valves are as follows:
A. The pilot valves tted in ports SI and SII
are connected in series.
The PM 3 main valve will be fully closed if
just one of the series-connected pilot
valves is closed. The main valve can only
open if both pilot valves are fully open at
the same time.
B. The pilot valve tted in port P is connected
in parallel to the pilot valves in ports SI
and SII.
The PM3 main valve will be fully open if the pilot
valve in P is fully open, irrespective of the degree
of opening of pilot valves SI and SII.
The PM 3 main valve will be fully closed if the
pilot valve in P is fully closed and at least one of
the valves in SI or SII is fully closed at the same
time. The relation between the pilot valves in
ports SI, SII and P is shown in the table above.
If the PM 3 is not tted with three pilot valves, the
unused port(s) must be sealed o with a blanking
plug.
If the blanking plug is tted as an assembled unit,
A + B, the channels from the port concerned will
be closed.
If only the top part, A, of the plug is tted, the
channels from the ports in question will be open.
If the degree of opening of the PM main valve
is not to be a function of the main valve inlet
pressure, or if more than three regulating
functions are required, ports SI, SII or P can be
tted with a nipple for the connection of external
pilot pressure. This applies to both PM 1 and PM
3.
Pressure p2 on top of the servo piston will then be
determined by the pressure to which the external
pilot line is connected. The main valve function
will be determined by the pilot valves tted in
that external pilot line. Pilot valves installed in
external lines must be mounted in a type CVH
housing.

Depending on the function of the pilot valves,


the PM regulating characteristic becomes:

proportional
integral or

PM main valves are therefore especially suitable
for all forms of temperature and pressure

Nominal capacities

SI units

Calculation example (R 134a capacities):


Running conditions in a plant are as follows:
Te = 20C
Q0 = 300 kW
Tliq = 10C
Max. P = 0.3 bar
The capacity table is based on nominal
conditions (P = 0.2 bar, Tliq = 30C).

Correction factor for P 0.3 bar fP = 0.82.


Correction factor for liquid temperature
fTliq = 0.82.
Qn = Qo fP fTliq = 300 0.82 0.82 = 202 kW.
From the capacity table a PM 25 with Qn = 224 kW
is the correct selection for the application.

The actual capacity must therefore be corrected


to a nominal condition by multiplication with
correction factors.

US units

Calculation example (R 134a capacities):


Running conditions in a plant are as follows:
Te = 20F
Qo = 130 TR
Tliq = 50F
Max. P = 5 psi
The capacity table is based on nominal
conditions (P = 3 psi, Tliq = 90F)

Correction factor for P 5 psi, fP = 0.79


Correction factor for liquid temperature
fTliq = 0.81.
Qn = Qo fP fTliq = 130 0.79 0.81 = 83.2 TR
From the capacity table a PM 32 with Qn = 91 TR is
the correct selection for the application.

The actual capacity must therefore be corrected


to a nominal condition by multiplication with
correction factors.

Calculation example (R 717 capacities):


Running conditions in a plant are as follows:
Te = 20C
Q0 = 180 kW
circulation rate = 3
Max. P = 0.3 bar

Correction factor for P 0.3 bar fP = 0.82


Correction factor for circulation rate frec = 0.75.
Qn = Q0 fp frec = 180 0.82 0.75 = 111 kW
From the capacity table a PM 15 with Qn = 133 kW
is the correct selection for the application.

The capacity table is based on nominal


conditions (pressure drop P = 0.3 bar, circulation
rate = 4).
The actual capacity must therefore be corrected
to a nominal condition by multiplication with
correction factors.

US units

Calculation example (R 717 capacities):


Running conditions in a plant are as follows:
Te = 20F
Q0 = 130 TR
Circulation rate = 3
Max. P = 5 psi

Correction factor for P 5 psi fp = 0.79


Correction factor for circulation rate frec = 0.75.
Qn = Q0 x fP x fcirc = 140 0.79 0.75 = 83 TR
From the capacity table a PM 25 with Qn = 114 TR
is the correct selection for the application.

The capacity table is based on nominal


conditions (pressure drop p = 3 psi,
circulation rate = 4).
The actual capacity must therefore be corrected
to a nominal condition by multiplication with
correction factors.

SI units

Calculation example (R 717 capacities):


Running conditions in a plant are as follows:
Te = 20C
Q0 = 100 kW
Circulation rate = 3
Max. P = 0.3 bar

Correction factor for P 0.3 bar fP = 0.82


Correction factor for circulation rate frec = 0.9.
Qn = Q0 fP frec = 100 0.82 0.9 = 73,8 kW.
From the capacity table a PM 40 with
Qn = 107 kW is the correct selection for the
application.

The capacity table is based on nominal


conditions (pressure drop P = 0.2 bar, circulation
rate = 4).
The actual capacity must therefore be corrected
to a nominal condition by multiplication with
correction factors.

US units

Calculation example (R 717 capacities):


Running conditions in a plant are as follows:
Te = 20F
Q0 = 10 TR
Circulation rate = 3
Max. P = 5 psi

Correction factor for P 5 psi fp = 0.79


Correction factor for circulation rate frec = 0.9.
Qn = Q0 fP fcirc = 10 0.79 0.9 = 7.1 TR
From the capacity table a PM 25 with Qn
= 10.0 TR is the correct selection for the
application.

The capacity table is based on nominal


conditions (pressure drop P = 3 psi, circulation
rate = 4).
The actual capacity must therefore be corrected
to a nominal condition by multiplication with
correction factors.

SI units

Calculation example (R 134a capacities):


Running conditions in a plant are as follows:
Te = 20C
Q0 = 90 kW
Tliq = 10C
Ts = 6C
Max. P = 0.3 bar

Correction factor for P 0.3 bar fP = 0.82


Correction factor for liquid temperature fTliq = 0.82
Correction factor for superheat (TS) = 1,0
Qn = Q0 fP fTliq fTs
= 90 0.82 0.82 1.0 = 60.5 kW
From the capacity table a PM 50 with Qn = 64 kW
is the correct selection for the application.

The capacity table is based on nominal


conditions (pressure drop P = 0.2 bar,
Tliq = 30C).
The actual capacity must therefore be corrected
to a nominal condition by multiplication with
correction factors.

US units

Calculation example (R 134a capacities):


Running conditions in a plant are as follows:
Te = 0F
Q0 = 23 TR
Tliq = 50F
Ts = 10F
Max. P = 5 psi

Correction factor for P 5 psi fp = 0.79


Correction factor for liquid temperature fTliq = 0.81
Correction factor for superheat (TS) = 1,0
Qn = Q0 fP fTliq fTs
= 20 x 0,79 x 0,81 x 1,0 = 12,6 TR
From the capacity table a PM 4 with Qn = 13 TR is
the correct selection for the application.

The capacity table is based on nominal


conditions (pressure drop P = 3 psi, Tliq = 90F)
The actual capacity must therefore be corrected
to a nominal condition by multiplication with
correction factors.

Calculation example (R 717 capacities):


Running conditions in a plant are as follows:
Te = 20 C
Qo = 90 kW
Tliq = 10 C
Max. P = 0.4 bar
Tdisch = 60C
The capacity table is based on nominel
conditions (P = 0.2 bar, Tliq = 30C,
Pdisch= 12 bar, Tdisch = 80C).

Correction factor for P 0.4 bar fP = 0.72.

= 90 0.72 0.92 0.97 1.0 = 58 kW.
From the capacity table a PM 20 with Qn = 80 kW
is the correct selection for the application.

The actual capacity must therefore be corrected


to a nominal condition by multiplication with
correction factors.

Calculation example (R 717 capacities):


Running conditions in a plant are as follows:
Te = 0F
Qo = 18 TR
Tliq = 50 F
Max. P = 7 psi
Tdisch = 120F
The capacity table is based on nominel
conditions (P = 3 psi, Tliq = 90 F,
Pdisch= 185 psi, Tdisch = 180F).

Correction factor for P 7 psi fP = 0.67.


Correction factor for liquid temperature f Tliq = 0.92.
Correction factor for Tdisch 120F, fdisch = 0.95.
Correction factor for Pdisch 185 psi, fpdisch = 1.0.
Qn = Qo fP fTliq fcirc fPdisch
= 18 0.67 0.92 0.95 1.0 = 10.5 TR
From the capacity table a PM15 with Qn = 13.1 TR
is the correct selection for the application.

The actual capacity must therefore be corrected


to a nominal condition by multiplication with
correction factors.
