Calculating the Kv and selecting a suitable valve

Using your maximum flowrate and smallest differential pressure

(P

1

– P

2

), calculate the required Kv from one of the above formulae.

Select a valve Kv that is 30% greater than the calculated Kv. The

optimum working range of the selected valve should ideally be

within the range of 10 to 70% of its Kv.

To maximise the control accuracy (especially for large load

variations) use the Kv values given at 20% offset. For safety valve

sizing use the maximum Kv values.
