Adjustable thermostatic mixing valve 1/2 40÷60°C 520440

Comfort and safety regulation in your heating system

This adjustable thermostatic mixing valve is a key component of domestic hot water (DHW) systems, ensuring a stable water temperature regardless of supply temperature fluctuations. It is ideal for systems with water heaters and DHW tanks, protecting against accidental burns and ensuring comfortable use. The valve is made of high-quality brass with a chrome finish, guaranteeing durability and corrosion resistance.

Construction and application

The mixing valve maintains a constant water temperature by mixing hot and cold water. Its construction based on a precise thermostatic element allows for accurate setting of the desired temperature in the range of 40÷60°C (depending on the model). The maximum working pressure is 10 bar, and the maximum supply water temperature is 90°C, making it suitable for most domestic installations. The valve is designed for mounting on pipes with a diameter of 1/2 inch with an external thread (male thread).

• Protection against burns: Constant water temperature eliminates the risk of sudden temperature changes, ensuring the safety of users, especially children and the elderly.
• Comfort of use: Stable water temperature provides comfort during bathing, washing dishes or laundry.
• Durability and reliability: Brass construction and chrome finish guarantee corrosion resistance and long valve life.
• Versatility: The valve can be mounted both vertically and horizontally, making it easy to install in various installation configurations.
• Simple adjustment: Intuitive adjustment allows for easy setting of the desired mixed water temperature.

Technical specifications and installation

The valve is characterized by a maximum inlet pressure ratio of 1.1:1, which means that the pressure of hot and cold water should be similar for the device to function properly. The minimum flow rate is 5 l/min, ensuring stable operation of the valve even with low water consumption. During installation, remember to flush the installation before mounting and maintain appropriate distances between installation elements for free access to the valve for maintenance purposes. It is also worth considering installing check valves to prevent backflow.
