The DCV10 and DCV10C are opened by the pressure and flow

of condensate and are closed by the pressure of the spring when

the flow ceases and before reverse flow occurs.

Pressure loss diagram with open valve at 20 °C. The values indicated are applicable with horizontal flow. With vertical flow, insignificant

deviations occur only within the range of partial opening.

The curves given in the chart are valid for water at 20 °C. To determine the pressure for other fluids the equivalent water volume

flowrate must be calculated and used in the graph.

Where:

w = Equivalent water volume flow in l/s or m3/h

= Density of fluid kg/m3

= Volume of fluid l/s or m3/h
