Thermostatic Hi-Lo Mixing Valve Supply Fixture
The Acorn ConTrols® SFMV Series Supply Fixtures can be accurately referred to as a High/Low valve fixture, compliant with the temperature control requirements of ASSE 1017 at flow rates well below the ASSE standard tested flow rate.
Key Benefits
- A customized valve system for whole-building or recirculating loop regulation
- 100% factory assembled and tested
- Based on MV17 Master Mixing Valves
- Use for hot water distribution systems in small to large
- Available with Acorn BASyC ® upgrade or option to add later
The SFMV Series Supply Fixtures are ideal for applications without recirculating pumps where the minimum flow for accurate control can be met by the actual demand of but a few fixtures. They are also ideal for recirculating systems where demand can vary from the pump draw alone (no user demand) up to a very high user usage.
Used in residential, commercial, institutional, and industrial applications
From small to large commercial applications, the SFMV series is offered in 5 models/sizes and various inlet and outlet configurations in order to allow you to select the valve with the capacity and performance capable of delivering safely controlled tempered hot water to all your fixtures, at all times.
SFMV Series Features
- Lead-Free sweated assembly featuring a DZR brass body mixing valve containing corrosion-resistant internal components.
- Integral cartridge-style checks with screens to prevent backflow and filter debris from entering the valve.
- Temperature adjustment is made using an Allen wrench. A locknut on the bonnet prevents unauthorized or accidental temperature adjustment.
- Commercial quality paraffin actuator provides repeatable, reliable performance.
- Includes lockable full port brass ball valves on inlet and outlet connections.
- The temperature gauge on the outlet, with gauges optionally available for inlets.
- Valve is IAPMO certified per ASSE 1017 and CSAB125.3.
- Factory assembled and pneumatically tested to 80 PSI (552 kPa).
- Available with a Cold Water Supply Bypass configuration.
- The MV17 is capable of exceeding the temperature control accuracy requirements of ASSE 1017 at Zero GPM actual user demand. The system must include a continuously operating recirculation pump capable of meeting the minimum flow rate shown on the nearby chart (.5 to 4 GPM based on the model) with a correctly adjusted balancing valve.
