Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides technical specifications and application guidelines for Danfoss FEV sensors, which are proportional controllers used in heating circuits to regulate temperature by opening or closing heating valves based on temperature deviations.

Product Specifications
  • FEV-IF: Designed for systems like ceiling, floor, or radiator heating. It features an integrated sensor and should be mounted on an internal wall at approximately 1.5 meters height for accurate temperature measurement.
  • FEV-FF: Suitable for systems with fancoils or induction units. It includes a remote sensor placed in the room-air inlet for quicker response to temperature changes.

Ordering Information
  • FEV-IF: Code no. 013G5467, Integrated sensor, 5 m capillary tube, Setting range 17-27 °C.
  • FEV-FF: Code no. 013G5466, Remote sensor, 2 + 2 m capillary tube.

Design and Functionality
The FEV sensors are compatible with RA-N, RA-G, or RA-C valves and operate on a self-acting principle using liquid-filled sensors. They control valves via capillaries and adapters, opening the valve when the temperature drops below the set point.

Temperature Control
Comfort temperature is approximately 22°C. The valve opens at temperatures below this when the knob is set in the middle position. Adjusting the knob to the red zone increases the opening temperature, while the blue zone decreases it. The system allows for a 4°C reduction in comfort temperature by adjusting the knob to the blue area.

Limiting Temperature Settings
The FEV sensors include a built-in device for limiting or locking the set temperature, ensuring precise control over the heating system.

Design Components
The document outlines the components of FEV-IF and FEV-FF, including the heating adapter, actuator, adjustment bellows, capillary reel, remote temperature adjuster, and sensor.

FEV, Control of Heating Circuit-1

Data sheet FEV sensorsControl of heating circuitProducts FEV-IF with integrated sensor FEV-FF with remote sensor The FEV is a proportional controller which opens or closes the heating valve as a function of the temperature deviation. FEV-IF To be applied in systems with i.e. ceiling-, floor- or radiator heating. The temperature-adjuster/sensor should be mounted on an internal wall at a height of approximately 1.5 meter in such a way that the room temperature can be measured accurately. FEV-FF To be applied in systems with i.e. fancoils or induction units. By placing the remote sensor in the room-air inlet of the unit a smaller response time to temperature changes can be achieved which will result in a more accurate temperature control.

FEV, Control of Heating Circuit-2

Data sheet Remote temperature adjuster Remote sensor (FEV-FF) Valve adapter (heating) FEV sensors can be applied in combination with RA-N RA-G or RA-C valves. The FEV sensors are equipped with a direct acting valve-controller that opens the valve when the temperature drops below the set temperature. If the set temperature is equal to or higher than the room temperature the valve is closed. Temperature setting Comfort temperature ~ 22°C at Xp = 0 K(°C) The FEV sensors have been developed for heating via water-based systems. The FEV sensors are based on the self-acting principle. The liquid-filled...

FEV, Control of Heating Circuit-3

Data sheet Temperature control through heating with FEV Control area of FEV sensor with RA-N/G and RA-C valve Xp = 0 K When the knob has been set in the middle position the valve will open at temperatures lower than 22°C. A setting in the red zone means the valve will open at a higher room temperature. A setting in the blue zone means the room temperature will be kept at a value lower then 22 °C. Heating with FEV thermostat Waterflow, heating Example Lowering comfort temperature by 4 °C Water flow, heating The comfort temperature is lowered by 4°C by turning the knob to a setting in the blue...
