PICV Explained - Pressure Independent Control Valves

The video tutorial explains Pressure Independent Control Valves (PICV) used in hydronic systems for heating and cooling. It covers the components, operation, and applications of PICVs, highlighting their efficiency in maintaining stable flow rates despite pressure fluctuations. The tutorial also discusses the benefits of maintaining a high delta T for system efficiency and provides a detailed explanation of how control valves and pressure controllers work together to achieve pressure independence.

In what types of systems are pressure independent control valves commonly used?

What problems can arise from not controlling the flow rate in a hydronic system?

Explain how the control valve and differential pressure controller work together in a pressure independent control valve.
