The RA15/T is a special conversion valve that allows a single connection point- at the side of the radiator- to serve as both the supply and return for a hot water based system. One such application of the conversion valve is the transition of a cast iron 1-pipe steam radiator to hot water. With the conversion valve the system can be transformed to a conventional one pipe hot water (diverter) or two pipe hot water systems. The RA15/6T valve is utilized for one pipe (diverter) systems allowing series piping of radiators without preventing flow to the loop and achieving individual control for each radiator. Within the body of the valve is an internal by-pass allowing system water to continue on. This provides continuous flow, but inherent to series piping the supply water temperature will decrease as it flows through the system and when it mixes with return water from radiators with a heating demand. As a result of decreased supply water temperature, not all radiators will provide the output performance reflected in their catalog resulting in variations in performance when different radiators are combined. With the installation of the RA15/6T valve, any RA2000 thermostatic operator or TWA electronic actuator can be mounted, providing individual temperature regulation and controlled comfort for the room.
