Concealed distributor box P-KLASIK 3 - 830mm IVAR.P-KLASIK 3

Product detailed description

This concealed distributor box is commonly used in residential and commercial buildings during the installation of underfloor or panel heating systems. It allows for the secure and concealed housing of heating distributors behind drywall or plaster finishes. Installers typically integrate it into central heating systems where space efficiency and aesthetics are important considerations. The box provides a clean finish while ensuring easy access to the distributor for maintenance and inspection.

Proper installation requires careful planning to align the box with the heating circuit layout. It is often found in new builds, renovations and retrofit projects where heating systems are integrated into walls or floors. The design supports the integration of various distributor models, ensuring flexibility in system configuration and expansion.

The adjustable embedding height (690–790 mm) and depth (110–160 mm) allow the box to be adapted to different wall thicknesses and construction requirements. The front cover height of 627 mm ensures sufficient clearance for the distributor components and facilitates access for servicing. The galvanised steel construction offers corrosion resistance and structural stability in both dry and humid environments.Installation and connection To install the box, first mark the position on the wall according to the heating system layout. Cut the opening in the wall to match the adjustable dimensions and insert the box, securing it with screws or wall anchors. Adjust the height and depth settings to ensure a flush fit with the surrounding surface. Connect the distributor to the heating circuits using standard pipe fittings, ensuring all connections are sealed and leak-free. Check that the box is level and aligned with adjacent wall surfaces. Common installation mistakes include incorrect depth adjustment, which can result in protrusion or gaps, and improper sealing of the distributor connections. Always verify that the front cover opens smoothly and that the distributor components are fully accessible after installation.

Compatibility and accessories

This concealed distributor box is specifically compatible with IVAR.CS 501, IVAR.CI 553 and IVAR.CS 553 heating distributors. When ordering, ensure that the selected distributor model matches the box dimensions and connection requirements. Additional components such as sealing rings, mounting brackets and insulation materials may be required depending on the system design and local building standards.

Technical background for designers

The box functions as a housing unit for heating distributors, protecting them from physical damage and environmental exposure. The galvanised steel construction provides long-term durability and resistance to corrosion, making it suitable for both indoor and semi-industrial applications. Its adjustable dimensions allow for integration into various wall structures, ensuring flexibility in design and installation. The distributor mounted inside the box regulates the flow of heated water or glycol to individual circuits, maintaining even heat distribution. The box’s design supports thermal efficiency by minimising heat loss and ensuring proper insulation around the distributor components. Proper alignment with the heating system layout and wall structure is essential to maximise performance and longevity.

Service and operation

Periodic visual inspections should be carried out to check for signs of wear, corrosion or blockage in the distributor connections. Ensure that the front cover opens and closes smoothly and that the distributor components remain accessible. If the system requires maintenance, the box allows for straightforward access without the need for major wall modifications.
