Valves and fittings catalogues (basic)
Every MEP&HVAC installation requires flow balancing and regulation for proper working. For this reason, valves and various types of fittings are key elements of sanitary installations. The cataloques of valves and fittings for the InstalSystem package include valves of various constructions and purposes, as well as other fittings elements. These elements are included in hydraulic calculations, in the selection of fitting sets and fittings for connections to pipes and receivers, and are ultimately included in automatically generated bills of materials. The InstalSystem package includes a neutral catalog with typical valve and fitting constructions and an extended library of company cataloques (check the list: Partners offering company versions of programs and catalogues).
The range of product types that can be included in the catalogue

The range of data used
- Products’ names and catalog codes,
- Products’ pictures and short notice “About the company” information, if the catalogue preparation order includes preparation of graphical catalogues,
- Technical data – the scope of the required technical data depends on the valve construction. Below is a list of sample data:
- Information concerning the application of the element (heating systems, cooling systems, water supply systems),
- Minimum and maximum operating temperature and maximum operating pressure,
- Diameter of fitting’s connections of the elements,
- Maximum pressure differential,
- Maximum pressure differential for noiseless operation (for radiator fittings),
- Values of kvs, presets and their kv values,
- Range of adjustable flow rate,
- Required minimum pressure drop dp_min,
- Information on cooperating heads/actuators,
- For water meters, heat meters and filters – nominal flow, maximum flow and resistance.
