  • Retrofit Solutions Technical Documentation
    ® Retrofit Solutions Technical Documentation Effective July 2009 Belimo Project: New York Times Building, New York Times Belimo Project: New York Why Retrofi tting Makes Sense Valves and actuators are responsible for ensuring reliable functioning hydronic and air control HVAC systems all over the world. With innovative technology, verified quality and easy handling during installations and operation, they boost the performance and efficiency of integrated building technology. Are you in need of a solution for a broken linkage, leaky hydraulic actuator, non-functioning electric or pneumatic actuator? Do you have a need for replacing a non-functioning application within a day or so? Belimo provides airside and waterside retrofit application solutions, with direct coupled or remote access linkages, and efficient actuators. Damaged linkages and/or actuators resulting in non-functioning HVAC system applications, used to mean a loss of properly functioning systems leading to a degradation of energy efficiency, consumer comfort, time, and labor. Replacing a valve along with the actuator, or trying to determine how to fix an airside linkage, is not always a sensible solution. Taking a system off-line to replace various components is not only laborious, it’s expensive. Facilities can lose thousands of dollars a day during maintenance shut-down. With retrofit solutions, this problem simply goes away. Valves and Damper applications can be quickly and conveniently restored without any interruption in service. In fact, entire systems can often be updated in a day. A poorly functioning or even non-functioning system can be transformed into a high functioning, more efficient system. Belimo provides many retrofits that are compatible with all major control systems, so there is no need to replace other system controls.
