The TV/SC-A is a thermostatic steam control temperature valve designed to automatically regulate flow in response to ambient temperature changes to protect facility pipelines and enclosures from freezing. The thermostatic actuator located at one end of the TV/SC-A (thermally isolated from the body of the valve), will automatically open or close within a 10 deg F (5.6 deg C) differential (e.g. 35 to 45 deg F) to provide an optimal fluid temperature. The steam tracing control valve is normally closed and will begin to open to inject steam or another fluid when the ambient temperature drops below the valve's set point. The valves will close again once the air temperature rises back above the valve's set point, saving thousands of dollars in wasted operating costs. Most often used in steam tracing applications, these self-actuating valves can also be used in the operation of pneumatically operated pumps for injection of anti-freeze liquids and instrument enclosure temperature control.
