Continuous Temperature Sensing: EconoHat Temperature Control Valve

Posted on by Sara Springer

Introducing a temperature control valve as smart as you are: the Econo/Hat Temperature Control Valve by ThemOmegaTech®.

ECONO/HAT valves are ideal for maintaining the discharge temperature in glycol heat tracing systems. When glycol temperature exceeds the valve’s set point, it will modulate closed. As heat loss occurs and glycol cools to below the set point, the valve will open to allow warmer glycol to circulate.

ECONO/HAT valves can also act as freeze protection for condensate systems. The valves open when temperatures fall to allow condensate to discharge before freezing. In commercial aircraft, high temperature water can unexpectedly travel to the cold water lines. ECONO/HAT
valves on cold water lines will limit flow when excessive temperatures are detected, preventing scalding of passengers and crew.

ECONO/HAT valves used on tank heating coils limit the temperatures of the heating element. By closing before coil temperatures are too high, the valves reduce the risk of over-temperature damage. When used as a subcooling steam trap, ECONO/HAT valves reduce problems
associated with overheating. When used as a sampling system safety shutoff, ECONO/HAT valves will remain open as long as sample temperatures are under the set point. If the sample temperature increases, the valve will shut off, protecting analyzing equipment from damage due to high temperatures.

Benefits of the Econo/Hat Temperature Control Valve:

• Controls fluid return temperatures – ideal for glycol tracing
• Maintains constant discharge temperatures
• Self-operating, no power or signal required
• Improves system efficiency
• Unaffected by pressure variations

Design Features of the Econo/Hat Temperature Control Valves:

• Exclusive Thermoloid® thermal actuator
• Compact, low mass – fast response time
• Corrosion resistant – long service life
• Ram-type plug for tight, reliable shutoff
• Operates in narrow temperature band
