Description
These direct acting bypass thermostat valves are
size 16, temperature controlled, high performance
screw-in valves with an M33×1.5 mounting thread.
They are intended to be installed directly in coolers or
line-mounting body. Depending on the temperature
of the oil, they route the ow either straight to tank or
through the cooler. When the oil is cold (< 50 °C), the
connection P to T is open (bypass), which means that
the ow is directed to tank with minimal headloss and
the oil warms up rapidly. After the changeover tem-
perature is reached (> 65 °C), the integral thermostat
element closes the connection P to T. The valve now
directs the oil ow through the cooler. With an inte-
gral pressure-relief function, the bypass thermostat
valve also safeguards the cooler by protecting it from
any pressure peaks that may result from excessive
ow rates. The maximum pressure is determined by
the model that is selected. The valves are predomi-
nantly used in coolers in mobile as well as industrial
applications. All external parts of the screw-in valves
are zinc-nickel plated and are thus suitable for use in
the harshest operating environments.

Installation information
IMPORTANT!
1) When tting the screw-in cartridge valve,
use the specied tightening torque. The value
can be found in the chapter "Technical data".
ATTENTION!
Only qualied personnel with mechanical
skills may carry out any maintenance work.
Generally, the only work that should ever be
undertaken is to check, and possibly replace,
the seals. When changing seals, oil or grease
the new seals thoroughly before tting them.
IMPORTANT!
Other mounting position and the axial inci-
dent ow from port P to valve spool results in
other Dp-values.
