Danfoss Valves
Pressure Independent Control Valves
Improves System Efficiency by Up to 50% by Eliminating Overflows and Increasing ΔT
AB-QM™ is a Danfoss pressure independent control valve with a built-in, integrated differential pressure regulator. When equipped with a perfectly matched Danfoss electric actuator, it increases energy efficiency & room temperature control, improving indoor climate conditions.
Sizing and Selecting Conventional Control Valves Is Complicated
Control valves paired with fixed orifice flow balancing devices have tormented the HVAC industry for decades by being too complex to correctly size, and too difficult to balance and providing limited control, resulting in overall system inefficiency.
Systems with variable loads need reliable valves that don’t require a constant balance to properly regulate the flow to the coil as the water pressure changes.

Danfoss AB-QM™ Puts Your System Back Into Proper Balance
Danfoss developed the AB-QM pressure independent control valve to solve this common issue.
The integral pressure regulating device assures consistent flow, regardless of changes in system pressure. The ability to set the flow on the valve results in the installation of a single component (no balancing valve needed) and allows for easy flow changes after installation.
Third-party verified flow control accuracy of +/-5% improves system efficiency in the range of 20%-50% by eliminating overflows and increasing delta-T.
Danfoss AB-QMs provide improved comfort and reduced energy for facility managers/owners, easier installation with fewer components for contractors, a properly balanced system for balancing contractors and optional BMS integration and data logging for commissioning agents
