Danfoss AVPB (003H6468) — self-acting differential pressure control and flow limiter, PN 25, DN 32, for district heating and cooling systems. The AVPB closes on rising differential pressure or when the set maximum flow is exceeded, holding a stable differential pressure across the controlled circuit so connected control valves keep their authority. It combines a control valve, an adjustable flow restrictor and an actuator with one control diaphragm and handle for differential-pressure setting. Differential-pressure setting 0.2–1 bar adjustable; flow rate 0.4–10 m³/h; Kvs 12.5 m³/h. Maximum differential-pressure range 16 bar, media temperature 2–150 °C, cavitation factor z ≥ 0.6, seat leakage 0.05 % Kvs (IEC 60534). Valve body Ductile iron EN-GJS-400-18-LT (GGG 40.3); valve cone dezincing-free brass CuZn36Pb2As; seat stainless steel 1.4571; control diaphragm and DP sealing EPDM. Connection Flange (PN 25), tailpiece thread G 1¾ A. Media: district heating/cooling circulation water. OEM P/N 003H6468. Technical data quoted verbatim from store.danfoss.com (code 003H6468) and the Danfoss AVPB/AVPB-F (PN 16, 25) operating guide. differential-pressure range 16 bar); Temperature range: 2 to 150 °C (district heating/cooling water); HS code: 8481.80. Used in commercial refrigeration, provision-room cooling and reefer plant rooms across HFC, HFO and CO2 (R744) refrigerants.

Danfoss AVPB for DN 32 district-heating/cooling circuits at PN 25. Size by the branch design flow (0.4–10 m³/h here) and set the differential-pressure setpoint within 0.2–1 bar. Confirm the connection (Flange (PN 25), tailpiece thread G 1¾ A) and pressure class (PN 25) match the pipework; order the matching tailpiece/union-nut set and impulse tube separately. Maximum differential-pressure range 16 bar, media temperature up to 150 °C.
