Notations
The Flowrite 599 Series Rack & Pinion Valve couples the OpenAir™ Actuator to a 1/2-
to 2-inch Flowrite 599 Series two- or three-way valve via a linkage. The linkage
transforms the actuator rotary movement into the linear motion required to position the
valve.
Brushless DC motor technology with stall protection
Bi-directional fail-safe spring return (actuator dependent)
Direct or reverse acting selectable by field installation
All metal housing
The Flowrite valves are used to control water and glycol solutions to 50 percent in small
to large air handling units and central plant applications.
