Function
AKO Temperature Regulators are being equipped with easily replaceable internal wax-filled thermostats that absorb the
temperature of the medium surrounding them at the measurement point namely into expansion and thus a change in path or
length (the valve stroke). AKO Temperature Regulators do not require any auxiliary energy. At rising temperature and on
excess of the opening temperature, the tube slider is being lifted off on the valve seat and opening path A to C, with the path A
to B locking simultaneously in the same ratio. The change is being performed in proportion to the change of temperature of the
passing medium.
Manual Override: In order to meet the security demands of the classification societies for great safety, the manual override
was installed. It is not intended for setting the temperature when the regulating valve runs automatically. The manual resetting
facility makes it possible to use the control valve as a manual change-over valve. The taper can be brought into any desired
position by means of an adjusting screw, so that any operating temperature can be set by observing the thermometer.
