Siemens VPF44 Flanged Pressure Independent Control Valve (PICV) PN16
Siemens VPF44 Flanged Pressure-Independent Control Valve (PICV) PN16
The Siemens VPF44 series belongs to the pressure-independent control valve (PICV) family: flow presetting, a differential pressure regulator and a control valve are combined in one body. Available in sizes DN50–DN150 with flanged connection. The set maximum flow is not affected by pressure fluctuations in the system, so hydronic balance in fan coil, air handling unit and heating/cooling circuits is achieved without a separate balancing valve. Medium temperature range is 1…120 °C.
The last number in the model code shows the approximate nominal flow in m³/h (e.g. VPF44.150F200); the nominal flow of each model is given in the model table. The valve operates with an actuator of suitable stroke and positioning force; verified actuators are listed below.

This list is verified compatibility information based on Siemens product matching data; it is not a list of similar-product suggestions. You can make the final selection with our engineering team based on your project conditions (differential pressure, stroke, control signal).
Selection and installation notes
- Selection is based on the design flow rate of the circuit; the flow rate is set on the valve and is maintained even when the pressure changes.
- For the valve to work properly, at least the minimum differential pressure must be available across it (the value is given in the data sheet).
- The actuator is selected taking into account the valve stroke and the control signal (on/off or modulating).
