If the pressure is too high, air is released by means of a solenoid valve. The systems are built solely with closed-diaphragm expansion tanks to prevent the damaging introduction of oxygen into the heating water. Installation Instructions Lambdamat LM 750/1500 | M2050121_en...
Design Information Return lift Pump-controlled pressure maintenance A pump-controlled pressure maintenance unit essentially consists of a pressure- maintenance pump, relief valve and an unpressurised receiving tank. The valve releases hot water into the receiving tank if the pressure is too high. If the pressure drops below a preset value, the pump draws water from the receiving tank and feeds it back into the heating system.
NOTICE! Install the draught limiter directly under the mouth of the flue line, as the pressure is constantly low at this point. Installation Instructions Lambdamat LM 750/1500 | M2050121_en...
