Technical Instructions Document No. 155-803 April 26, 2017 599 Series 6-Way Ball Valves Description The 599 Series 6-way ball valves couple with the Siemens GDE161.1P OpenAir™ modulating actuator to provide single valve and actuator changeover and control of hot and chilled water for heated/chilled beam applications or any four-pipe system. Features• Control two media sources (hot and chilled water) to a single coil with one valve and actuator. • 232 psi (16 bar) pressure rating. • Large C v range (0.3 to 4.7 C v ) for each media source. • 1/2-, 3/4-, and 1-inch line size connections. • 58 psi (4 bar) close-off. • 0% leakage prevents mixing of hot and chilled water. • Chrome-plated brass balls and stainless steel stem. • Blow-out proof stem. • Actuator and mounting bracket can easily be rotated (90-degree increments). • Operating handle for manual operation. • Built-in pressure compensation function. Application The 6-way ball valves changeover and control hot and chilled water (both sources similarly treated) in heated/chilled beams and any other four-pipe system utilizing the same coil to heat and cool. WARNING: Personal injury or loss of life may occur if you do not perform a procedure as specified. CAUTION: Equipment damage may occur if you do not perform a procedure as specified.Technical Instructions 599 Series 6-Way Ball Valves Document Number 155-803 April 26, 2017 Page 2Siemens Industry, Inc.

When shipped as a valve/actuator assembly, the actuator is in the 45° position. Figure 1. Acceptable Mounting Positions.Technical Instructions599 Series 6-Way Ball Valves Document Number 155-803 April 26, 2017 Page 6Siemens Industry, Inc. Operation The 6-way ball valve enables control between two sources (A and B) through positions 0° and 90° and is closed at 45°. Both sources supply the same coil (C). See Figure 2. Figure 2. 6-way Ball Valve Characteristic Curve. The 6-way ball valve is combined with the GDE161.1P modulating fail-in-place actuator. The market standard operation is shown in Figure 2. A control signal of 0V provides full flow from Source A, 5V is both Source A and Source B closed, and 10V provides full flow from Source B. Both Sources A and B have a linear flow characteristic. The control range for modulating the flow of Source A is with a control signal between 0V and 4.5V. The control range for modulating the flow of Source B is with a control signal between 5.5V and 10V. CAUTION: For the actuator to operate according to the market standard described above, the DIP switches must be set as shown in Figure 3. The left DIP switch is set to the off (down) position, while the middle and right DIP switches are set to the on (up) position. These are the settings when the 171C 6-way valve/actuator assemblies are shipped from the factory. If the GDE161.1P actuator is purchased separately, the default DIP switch settings are all in the off (down) position, and must be set as shown in Figure 3 when used with the 6-way ball valves. Figure 3. GDE161.1P DIP Switch Settings for Proper 6-Way Ball Valve Operation.599 Series 6-Way Ball ValvesTechnical Instructions Document Number 155-803 April 26, 2017 Siemens Industry, Inc.Page 7 Operation, Continued The Siemens 6-way Ball Valve has an internal pressure equalization function that ensures the safe operation of heated and chilled ceilings in a closed valve state (45° position). Changes to media temperature in the heated and chilled ceiling can result in over or under pressure in a closed state and may even damage part of the heated and chilled ceiling. The safety function only acts in the closed valve position (45°). The heating and cooling circuits are safely separated while operating . Flow Direction Ensure that the valve is installed with both media sources piped with proper flow direction. Flow direction is indicated on the bib tag that ships with each 6-way ball valve and is shown below. See Figure 4. AS = Supply from Source ACS = Supply to CoilBS = Supply from Source B AR = Return to Source ACR = Return from Coil BR = Return to Source B C V A = C V for Source AC V B = C V for Source B Figure 4. Flow Direction. To illustrate the information in theOperationandFlow Direction sections above, Figure 5 shows the Source A and Source B flow curves versus the actuator rotation and control signal voltage for part numbers 599-10601-1.5-2.9 and 171C-10601-1.5-2.9. In this example, the C V of Source A (C V A) is 1.5, and the C V of Source B (C V B) is 2.9. Figure 5. Example Control Characteristic Curve for 599-10601-1.5-2.9 and 171C-10601-1.5-2.9.Technical Instructions599 Series 6-Way Ball Valves Document Number 155-803 April 26, 2017 Page 8Siemens Industry, Inc. Application Example Heating or cooling sources can be applied to either the Source A or Source B connection, but ensure that the correct C V values correspond to the sources being connected to each side: Stem rotates counterclockwise ⇒ Source B (cooling sequence) opens or Source A (heating sequence) closes. Stem rotates clockwise ⇒ Source A (heating sequence) opens or Source B (cooling sequence) closes. The following example application describes the flow direction in a heated and chilled ceiling: Figure 6. Source A (Heating) and Source B (Cooling) Application Example.
