Safety valve for central heating. 1/2 inch female thread connections 6 bar 311460

Safety valve for central heating – protection and reliability

This safety valve from CALEFFI is a key element of every central heating installation. Its function is to protect the system from excessive pressure increases, which translates to a longer lifespan and safe operation of the entire system. The brass construction ensures durability and corrosion resistance, and the standard 1/2 inch thread facilitates installation and integration with existing installations.

Construction and practical application

The safety valve with external gas cylindrical (BSPP) threaded connections with a diameter of 1/2 inch is designed to operate at a maximum pressure of 6 bar. The angular model (right angle) makes it easier to install in tight spaces. It is compatible not only with central heating installations, but also with heating systems using solar energy and cooling systems. This makes it a universal solution for a wide range of applications.

This valve automatically releases excess pressure in the installation, preventing damage to the boiler, radiators and other system components. Its operation is based on a spring that keeps the valve closed until the set overflow pressure is exceeded – in this case, 6 bar. This simple but effective solution provides peace of mind for both installers and end users.

Key features and benefits

• Overpressure protection: Protects the central heating installation from damage caused by excessive pressure, which extends its lifespan and minimizes the risk of failure.
• Versatility: The ability to use it in central heating, solar and cooling installations increases its usefulness.
• Durability: Made of brass, resistant to corrosion and mechanical damage – a guarantee of long-term operation.
• Easy installation: The standard 1/2 inch BSPP thread allows for quick and easy integration with existing heating systems.
• Compliance with standards: The pressure class PN 10 of the device ensures compliance with applicable safety standards.
• Wide temperature range: Operation in the temperature range from 5°C to 110°C allows the valve to be used in various operating conditions.
