SECTION 23 09 00 – BUILDING AUTOMATION SYSTEM This is supplemental language for a spec. This is not an all inclusive spec. This is language that is meant to be copied and pasted into an existing spec. PART 1 - GENERAL PART 2 - PRODUCTS 2.1 AUTOMATIC CONTROL VALVES A. General: B. Butterfly Valves 1. All valve body connections shall be full lugged type flange connections. Wafer valves shall not be used. 2. Valves specified herein shall apply to cold water, glycol solutions and hot water up to 200F. This valve spec shall not apply to superheated water or steam systems. 3. Applications a. Butterfly valves shall be used for 2 position isolation. b. Butterfly valves shall not be used for modulation control of closed water systems, for coils, or for heat exchanger control. c. Butterfly valves can be used for temperature control bypass on open cooling towers. d. Butterfly valves can be used for temperature control of water injection into secondary water systems. e. For valves that switchover between heating and cooling supply, see requirements for actuator speed under actuator specification. 4. Butterfly valves shall have body ratings in accordance with the piping specifications. a. Design body pressure shall be determined by the adding the static pressure due to the height of the system plus the compression tank charge plus the maximum head of the system pump at cut off. Provide 10% design factor. b. Valves that are in high static locations or where flanges are ANSI300 per the piping design shall be high performance, ANSI 300 as required by pipe specifications. c. Valves that are in locations where ANSI150 flanges are allowed shall be ANSI 150 valves. d. Undercut discs shall only be used on systems where the maximum pump total head pressure is below 50psi. Otherwise, the valve seats shall be bubble tight at a pressure higher than the maximum pump total head pressure. Maximum total pump head shall be taken from the pump curve at full speed and 0 flow. e. Bubble tight rating shall apply when the system is under operation and at full pressure. Bubble tight rating shall also apply when the system is not operating and under low or no pressure. Valves that require system pressure to remain bubble tight are not acceptable.
