Hydraulic Installation

2.9.1 Open vase plant safety devices
According to standard UNI 10412-2 (2006) in force in Italy, systems with open expansion vases must
be fitted with:
• Open expansion vase
• Safety pipe
• Loading pipe
• Circulator control thermostat (except for natural circulation systems)
• Circulation system (except for natural circulation systems)
• Acoustic alarm activation device
• Acoustic alarm
• Temperature indicator
• Pressure indicator
• Automatic thermal blocking switch (blocking thermostat)
2.9.2 Closed vase plant safety devices
According to standard UNI 10412-2 (2006) in force in Italy, systems with close expansion vases must
be fitted with:
• Safety valve
• Circulator control thermostat
• Acoustic alarm activation thermostat
• Acoustic alarm
• Temperature indicator
• Pressure indicator
• Automatic thermal regulation switch
• Automatic thermal blocking switch (blocking thermostat)
• Circulation system
• Expansion system
• Safety dissipation system built into the generator with thermal discharge valve (automatic),
if the device is not fitted with a self-adjusting temperature system.
Automatic loading domestic heating devices must be fitted with a fuel blocking thermostat or with a
cooling circuit provided by the device's manufacturer, activated by a thermal safety valve that guarantees
that the top temperature established by the standard is not exceeded. The connection between the feed
unit and the valve must be without any cut-offs. The pressure upstream of the cooling circuit must be
at least 1.5 bar.
