The ICV-120 Inlet Control Valve is an ultra-high-capacity, heavy-duty valve engineered for large central air systems and the most powerful industrial air compressors. Its core function is to act as the primary gateway and precision control unit for managing massive air intake into the compressor's compression chamber.
It operates on a fundamental load/unload principle, scaled for maximum efficiency:
Loaded State: The valve opens fully, allowing an extremely high volume of atmospheric air to be drawn into the compressor with minimal flow restriction.
Unloaded State: The valve closes with an absolute, bubble-tight seal, completely halting airflow and enabling the compressor to run in a zero-flow idle state, thereby maximizing energy efficiency on a large scale.
This precise and reliable cycling is critical for advanced system control, ensuring optimal pressure stability across a vast network and significantly reducing overall power consumption.
Ultra-High Flow Capacity: The ICV-120 features the largest flow path and porting in the series (denoted by '120'), engineered to support the extreme air volumes (CFM) required by central compressor rooms and very large horsepower systems, with an absolute minimal pressure drop.
Heavy-Duty Industrial Construction: Built to withstand 24/7 operation in the most demanding conditions, it utilizes premium materials such as a high-strength ductile iron or cast steel body, a hardened stainless-steel or carbide valve seat, and industrial-grade seals resistant to high temperatures and corrosion.
Maximum Energy Efficiency: The valve's advanced, precision-machined sealing mechanism ensures a perfect seal in the closed position, virtually eliminating air leakage during unloaded cycles. This directly translates to massive energy savings and a reduced carbon footprint for large-scale operations.
Ruggedized High-Force Actuation: Designed with an ultra-robust actuation system (typically high-flow pneumatic) capable of instant and reliable operation despite the high air pressures and continuous cycling demands of a large industrial plant, ensuring consistent performance.
Extended Service Life & Minimal Downtime: Every component is engineered for maximum durability and millions of maintenance-free cycles. This results in unparalleled reliability, reduced maintenance costs, and a lower total cost of ownership for mission-critical applications.
Designed for Central Systems & High Demand: This valve is the definitive choice for central compressor rooms, large manufacturing facilities like automotive or steel plants, and other processes with continuous, ultra-high air demand where performance and reliability are paramount.
