Floating and damping pressure independent control valve (f&d PICV)

A pressure independent control valve (PICV) for hydronic and HVAC systems includes two opposing control valves mounted on a common spindle, a differential pressure regulating assembly comprising either dual opposing valves or a cylindrical valve, a diaphragm biased by a return spring, and a hydraulic damper utilizing system fluid through a clearance gap. The valve features a co- axial inline configuration of inlet, outlet, and internal regulating elements, enabling frictionless, balanced operation. Sealing components are disengaged during flow regulation and only activated at shutoff, allowing high-precision modulation without hysteresis or oscillations. A manual adjustment mechanism enables simultaneous fine and coarse flow setting via both control valves. The architecture supports high differential pressures, reduced actuator torque, and improved longevity. The valve design is suitable for stainless steel production using investment casting methods, supporting compact, energy-efficient operation across a wide flow range with stable performance.
