Reliance 15mm TPR15L 6.0 Bar Temperature & Pressure Relief Valve

Details

The Cash Acme compact pressure and temperature relief valve is designed to provide protection against overpressurisation, which can occur within an unvented hot water system if the input temperature or pressure controls fail. The valves are designed to be fitted to the upper portion of a hot water cylinder as this is where the hottest temperatures in the system will be found.

If the system rises above 95°C, the wax mixture within the element of the temperature probe will expand, this will lift the valve off its seat and release water to waste, thereby reducing the pressure within the cylinder. Also if the water pressure increases (without temperature increase) the valve will stay closed until the set pressure of the relief mechanism is reached, at which point the valve will again open and the excess pressure is relieved.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Protect against temperature rising beyond 95°C
