TORONTO — The new AB-QM Pressure Independent Control
Valve (PICV) from Danfoss Heating provides a perfect flow limiter and a control
valve in one compact package.
The AB-QM valve can be used as a stand-alone, automatic flow limiter valve or as
a combined flow limiter and control valve when fitted with a wide range of
Danfoss actuators, providing accurate and stable flow. The actuators are
available in several control strategies: 0-10 volt, pulse-width modulation,
on/off thermal, and on/off and 0-10 volt electric actuators.
As a result, the AB-QM valve can be used in all cooling and heating
applications. It’s the perfect choice for controlling terminal units such as
fan-coils, water-source heat pumps, chilled ceilings and air handling units.
For installers, setting the valve is straight forward – as easy as setting a
watch – and can be done without tools. This easy-setting procedure makes late
changes in the design, or subsequent system modifications, simple to implement.
The valve’s authority no longer needs to be calculated because the AB-QM
features a unique design that ensures 100 percent authority with all settings
and differential pressures. This increases control quality and precision,
leading to increased comfort in the building.
In addition to easy setting and increased comfort, the AB-QM ensures reduced
installation and commissioning costs and increased energy savings. And the
valve’s compact design makes it easy to install in areas where space is limited.

“The new AB-QM valve demonstrates Danfoss’ commitment to bringing to market
innovative, high-quality products that help our customers reduce their energy
costs, improve indoor comfort and help the environment,” said Lyle Moroz, vice
president, Danfoss Heating. “We are quite proud of the AB-QM’s achievements in
these areas.”
The AB-QM is available in various valve sizes ranging from 1/2 inch to 1¼
inches, with sizes up to 6 inches coming soon. The AB-QM is available with NPT,
solder and complete coil kit solutions.
