Morton Grove, IL -- May 22, 1996 --- Bell & Gossett has announced
an updated, improved version of its Circuit Setter® Plus Balance Valvefeaturing
sweat connections through 2" sizes and a new adjustment knoband memory
stop on 1/2"-1" sizes that make it more durable andeasier to adjust
the memory setting.
To use the improved memory stop, a user rotates the red adjustment knobto
a desired setting on the valve's nameplate and locks the setting in placeby
tightening a screw conveniently located on the face of the knob.
The addition of sweat connections up to 2" is in response to increaseddemand
by contractors for sweat connections for smaller pipe sizes to reduceinstallation
labor costs.

can be used as a presettable balance valve, variable orifice flow meterand
positive shut-off valve. The units are designed specifically to providecost-saving,
pre-set proportional system balance for hydronic systems. This system balance
method, developed by Bell & Gossett, assures optimumsystem flow balance
