For HW tanks
This category includes pressure reducing valves and safety groups specifically designed for integration with domestic hot water (HW) storage tanks. These components are essential for maintaining safe and stable operating conditions within the system by controlling pressure and preventing overpressure scenarios. The products are commonly used in heating and hot water systems where thermal expansion and pressure fluctuations can occur.
Constructed from nickel-plated brass CW617N, these valves and groups offer durability and corrosion resistance, making them suitable for long-term use in plumbing and heating applications. They are compatible with a range of connection types and sizes, ensuring adaptability to different system configurations.
How to choose
- Select the correct connection size (e.g., 3/4" or 1/2") based on the inlet and outlet dimensions of the hot water tank.
- Verify the thread type (e.g., male or female threads) to ensure compatibility with the system fittings.
- Confirm the material (nickel-plated brass CW617N) is suitable for the system’s chemical and thermal environment.
- Ensure the valve or group is designed for the specific application (e.g., thermal expansion control or pressure regulation).
Frequently asked questions
Can these valves be used with both indirect and direct heating systems?
Yes, provided the operating pressure and temperature match the valve’s specifications.
What is the recommended installation position for a safety group on a hot water tank?
Mount the safety group vertically, with the discharge pipe directed away from the tank and accessible for inspection.
