Flow capacity (DN 200)
A key performance parameter of control valves is the flow coefficient (Kv). The chart and table below show data for DN 200, calculated by the Central Design Bureau for Valve Engineering.

Heating Function
AeroThru is the first control valve with an integrated flow-path heating system. Traditionally, frozen valves are improvised on-site by maintenance crews, but AeroThru operates reliably in temperatures as low as −60 °C without additional modifications.
Bidirectional Flow
AeroThru maintains full performance even when the flow direction is reversed. This capability supports not only flow reversal, but also system blow-down, cleaning, and balancing across multiple circuits — all without affecting valve characteristics.
Self-Cleaning Design
Other control valves often suffer damage from sand, welding slag, and debris. AeroThru eliminates this problem with a flow path free of vulnerable internal elements, ensuring reliable operation even in harsh environments.
