MXG461.15-3.0U

The MXG461.15-3.0U by Siemens is engineered as a magnetic control valve optimized for fluid control applications, particularly with water as the medium. This valve has a nominal size of 1/2 inch and weighs 8.69 pounds, making it compact and easy to implement in systems. It provides a flow capacity of 3.5 Cv, which indicates significant capability for managing flow rates effectively.

Notably, the valve features a two-way configuration that allows for floating operation, which can be selected according to specific application needs. It is equipped with NPT union fittings along with a blanking flange for straightforward installation. The close-off pressure is rated at 72 psi, while it can operate safely under conditions of up to 145 psi (1,000 kPa).

Control operations are carried out via a proportional signal with a voltage range from 0 to 10 volts DC, enabling precise management of flow characteristics. The high resolution of 1000:1 facilitates fine adjustments for accurate control. Additionally, the positioning time is remarkably quick, rated at one second or less, ensuring responsiveness in dynamic environments.

Temperature handling for the water medium spans from 1°C to 130°C, accommodating various operational scenarios. The valve is also enhanced with multiple special features including auto-calibration for ease of setup, a manual override capability, and DIP switch-selectable signal input and flow characteristics that allow users to tailor its performance based on specific requirements. Furthermore, built-in position feedback aids in monitoring the valve’s status, thereby improving overall system performance and reliability.
