Thermostatic mixing valves

A complete range of thermostatic mixing valves is available for
domestic appliances, health care, school, hotel and leisure facilities.
This includes a valve which meets the TMV3, DO8 engineering
specifications required for healthcare and nursing home facilities
and BS EN1111 & 1287 (TMV2). It allows installations from point
of use of baths and basins to centralised mixing in commercial
properties such as sports facilities, where stable temperatures with
high volume flow rates are required.
The range covers use with hot and cold water, with inlet pressures
of up to 14 bar, maximum inlet temperatures of 85C and
temperature controls of +/-2C.

duty of care for all plumbers and installation engineers to correctly

situations and installations. Other regulations
and standards also affect the hot water

Pressure Reducing Valves
Pressure Reducing valves

Pressure reducing valves are installed in residential water systems
to reduce and stabilise inlet pressures from mains water supplies or
boosted water systems, which generally are too high and variable
for domestic appliances to function correctly.
The Caleffi range of pressure reducing valves are design

to cover, domestic, semi commercial and commercial
applications. Ranging from 15mm to DN 300.
Meeting the latest European standard and UK water
regulations, the range of pressure reducing valve provide
pressure control under both dynamic and static flow
condition (dependant on model).
The 535 series is specially designed for hot and cold services in
semi-commercial or public buildings to equalise the supplier to
prevent excessive pressure at water outlets such as taps, basins,
toilets, dishwashers and other appliances.

The thermostatic controller contains a liquid filled element which

automatically controls the opening of the valve to keep the ambient
temperature of the room at the set temperature.
This prevents temperature fluctuations in the room and achieves
considerable energy savings.
The thermostatic controller has 0 setting which prevents flow but
when positive isolation is required the manual cap must be used.
The frost setting prevents the radiator and pipework from freezing and
causing damage from flooding to floor coverings and structural items.

Sealed Systems
Sealed Systems
Sealed primary central heating systems are the most commonly
used form of heating system throughout Europe and the rest of
the developed world.
Sealed central heating systems should not be confused with
unvented mains pressure hot water systems, which apply only to
the secondary hot water supply side of a combined heating and
hot water system.
From an installers viewpoint, therefore, there is no requirement
to be registered or to notify any authority when fitting a sealed
primary heating system.
The ease of installation of a sealed system makes it particularly
attractive to the installer, eliminating the feed and expansion tank
and associated pipework, and thus reducing the risk of corrosion
and noise in the system.

Advantages can be summarised as follows;

System flexibility due to component siting alternatives.
Cost savings due to considerably reduced installation time.
No feed and expansion tank hence avoiding over pumping
problems, risk of freezing up etc.
Longer life due to virtual elimination of corrosion problems.
Noise reduction due to higher system pressure, boiler noise
(localised boiling) is significantly reduced or eliminated.
Low maintenance costs as equipment is virtually maintenance
free, other than for periodic operational checks.
Essential Components and Location

Note: Domestic sealed heating systems should take due account
of the following British Standards:
BS 7074: Part 1: 1998 Application, selection and installation
of expansion vessels and ancillary equipment for sealed water
sytems Part 1. Code of practice for domestic heating and
water supply.
BS EN 12828: 2003 Heating systems in buildings Design for
water based heating systems.
The essential components for a sealed system are:
Diaphragm Expansion Vessel (complying with BE EN 13831:
2007 Closed expansion vessels with built in diaphragms for
installation in water)
Safety Valve (pressure relief valve)
Pressure Gauge
Filling Point (means for system filling, make-up and venting).

Expansion Vessels
The benefits of Nitrogen filled vessels

Nitrogen, a dry inert gas used in the Reflex range of expansion
vessels, improves the vessels life span by reducing corrosion
inside the vessel, and prevents loss of pre-charge pressure.
Nitrogen permeates through rubber slower than oxygen, is far
less reactive to both steel and aluminium and does not degrade
rubber prolonging the membrane life.
Oxygen in compressed air permeates through the membrane, thus
reducing the pre-charge pressure over time. During normal operation,
oxygen oxides the membrane in the vessel, causing under-inflation,

but dry Nitrogen will maintain proper inflation pressure and will not
corrode the inside of the vessel.
Its recognised in the industry that oxidative aging is one of the
primary causes of decreased vessel life. Tests have shown that if
vessels are inflated with nitrogen, there is a significant reduction in
failure and increased vessel life.

In heating and chilled water systems the circulating water will
undoubtedly contain debris which entered the pipework during
site storage and construction.
The debris may consist of pipe scale, thread turnings, rust
particles, thread sealing tape or jointing paste and airborne
dust particles.
If left within the pipework this debris may cause erosion to bends
and fittings, and cause damage to pumps and control valves.
Modern systems contain many small control valves in which the
seats could become damaged or blocked, these types of valve
require a clean system to work efficiently.
Dirt separators are an efficient way of removing debris and are

capable of removing small particles down to 5um (microns) in size.
Debris is collected in the large chamber allowing longer periods
between cleaning, which can be done whilst the system is operating.
Dirt separators if cleaned regularly have low pressure loss
characteristics, important for reducing energy demands and on
going running costs.
Excessive air within a system can cause excessive noise, reduce
the accuracy of control valves and the performance of heating and
cooling equipment, removal is therefore important.

General
Function
Series 311, 312, 313, 314, 513, 514 safety (pressure

relief) valves are made by Caleffi S.p.A. in compliance
with the essential safety requirements laid down by
Directive 97/23/CE of the European Parliament and the
Council of the European Union for harmonisation of
member States with regard to pressurised equipment.
Safety relief valves are typically used for controlling pressure on

boilers in heating systems, on stored hot water cylinders in
domestic hot water systems and in water systems generally.
When the calibrated pressure is reached, the valve opens, and, by
means of the discharge to atmosphere, prevents the pressure of
the system from reaching levels which would be dangerous for the
boiler and the components in the system itself.
Series 527 valves are fail-safe devices, i.e. they are guaranteed to
operate even in the case of wear or breakage of the diaphragm.

Backflow Prevention
Backflow Prevention
There are legal requirements regulating water installations in
domestic, commercial and health care premises.
These requirements make it a criminal offence for any person,
whether the owner or occupier, to allow the wholesome water
supply system within their premises to become:
Contaminated
Wasted
Misused
Unduly consumed
It is also a criminal offence to allow any contaminated water to
backflow into the Water Undertakings distribution system.
Connections between wholesome and unwholesome water
systems can create a serious risk to public health where
backflow from cross connection results in contamination of the
wholesome water supply system.
Persons with the responsibility for the water installation within
their premises should make themselves familiar with the
appropriate legislation and the risks that can occur from the
backflow and back siphonage of a contaminate.
The legislation which governs water installations within private
premises is set out in:
The Water Industry Act 1991
The Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999
The Water Byelaws 2000, Scotland
European standard EN 1717
To Prevent the contamination of the wholesome water supply
system, the Water Regulations require backflow protection
devices to be installed at or near to all points where water is to
be drawn off for use.

Ball Valves
Intaball Ball Valves
The Altecnic Intaball lever ball valve with compression ends
is the ideal isolation valve, for use in copper pipe systems.
Suitable for isolating individual outlets, or providing
isolation for Y strainers or control valves, should
maintenance be required.
In larger systems they can provide isolation on heating,
chilled and the primary side of HWS services on zones,
branches or floors.
Design
The Intaball brass ball valves are lever operated through 90,
with bi-directional flow.
Hard chrome plated ball for increased wear resistance.
Compact design, with PTFE body seats for reliable isolation.
Anti blow out stem for added security.
The valves are designed for high flow rates with minimum
pressure drops.
Supplied with compression ends complying with BS EN
1252-2 for use with R250 (half hard) copper tube.
Valves are available with either a red or blue lever sleeve
for visual indication of hot or cold service.
Full Bore Flow improves system efficiency and reduces
wear and tear.

BREEAM
The Building Research Establishment set up BREEAM (Building Research
Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) as a way to determine the
environmental performance of buildings.
BREEAM high lights the use of water in buildings. Points, which count towards
the assessment rank, are awarded depending on the level of environmental
efficiency achieved. Most building types can be specified and assessed using
one of BREEAMs defined categories which include healthcare, industrial,
prisons, retail, education, offices as well as domestic housing.
BREEAMs scope does not only cover water saving but energy usage, materials,
comfort and the environmental impacts. The advantages of a BREEAM
building extend to both designer and end user; the end user receives a building
that is economic to run and the designer can clearly demonstrate compliance
with environmental requirements. - (www.breeam.org)
The Water Efficient Product Labelling Scheme

The Water Efficient Product Labelling Scheme an independently scheme
supported by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
(DEFRA). It is a method of reviewing water efficient products driven by a
regularly maintained database.
Each product in the central database is tested and colour coded. A simple
scale ranging from low to high water use provides an at a glance indication
of its water saving performance. (www.water-efficiencylabel.org.uk)
The Water Technology List

The government has supported organisations that invest in water efficient
technologies. Forming a part of this is the Water Technology List (WTL), a
single source of approved water efficient products.
The Water Technology List was published after a lengthy review between
DEFRA and HMRC, WTL describes products that DEFRA believe will make
water savings.
The Enhanced Capital Allowance scheme works in conjunction with the
Water Technology List. Any commercial operation that pays UK corporation
tax can claim 100% first year capital allowances on investments in water
efficient products (and their installation) chosen from the WTL.

Metering
Metering
Altecnic offer a complete range water meters, single and multi-jet
type with wet and dry dial or liquid filled sealed counter as well
as full bore helix Woltmann-type meters with interchangeable or
fixed mechanism to suit the needs of practically any end user.
Our range of water meters are EEC approved in classes Class A,
B C dependant on model in accordance with EEC directive No.
75/33.
The best quality of all our products is achieved thanks to the
direct control over all the productive stages. The production cycle
starts with the control of incoming supplies, proceeds with the
storage, identification and proper handling of all materials, both
at the warehouse and during production, and continues with the

machining of the brass parts on the automatic transfer machines
and the automated assembly of the components.
The quality of the moulded pieces, along with the precision of the
robotized machines in assembling them, ensures that all the parts
fit together perfectly.
This mean minimal friction between the gearwheels that make up
the meter's measuring element and, consequently, a high degree
of precision and sensitivity even at the lowest flow rates. Lastly,
all our water meters undergo hydraulic tests for pressure and
precision on electronic measurement.

Unvented Controls

Potable water expansion vessels
Thermostats
Unvented hot water components

The modern hot water system, or unvented systems as they are
known, are all for hot water, which are provided at mains pressure.
This allows for better showers, baths and general hot water usage
with the added benefit of the cylinders being very well insulated,
heat up times are significantly reduced. Such systems relied on
a number of components to allow them to operate efficiently
and safely.
Altecnic are pleased to offer market leading products found on
many of the industrys leading brands varying from thermostats
and expansion vessels to inlet pressure control groups.
Inlet groups
The water entering the cylinder is no longer stored in large tanks
within the loft space but fed directly from the cold water mains.
In doing this the installer needs to control any pressure issues
www.altecnic.co.uk
involved with drawing directly from the mains. Altecnic inlet

groups contain a pressure reducing valve which limits the pressure
going in to the cylinder, and a safety relief valve, which releases
pressure in the event of any component failures.
Expansion vessels
Heating of water leads to expansion which if not correctly dealt
with can cause damage. Altecnic offers a number of potable water
expansion vessels in a wide size range to help take the expansion
of water within the system
Thermostats
Controlling the heat source is done by a range of safety
thermostats and control thermostats. Altecnic can supply high
quality industry standard control and safety limit thermostats to
suit any unvented cylinder application

3.22 | Notes
Geothermal
Geothermal
The products in the CALEFFIGEO series have been conceived specifically for use in heat
pump systems.
The thermal medium in circuits with air source heat pump can reach very low temperatures; for this
reason the components are made with high-performance materials and special solutions to prevent
freezing are offered.
COMPONENTS FOR AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMP SYSTEMS

Air source heat pump systems offer huge benefits compared to the use of
geothermal energy: they dont need any outside ground, any specific permits
and any expensive digging work to bury the heat exchangers.
Nevertheless, there are some limits to be taken into consideration, such as
the huge fluctuations in the temperature of the outside air.
The outside air can reach very low temperatures, making the pump work with
somewhat limited COP values and overly high system running costs.
For these reasons, when the temperature of the air is very low, we
recommend using boilers alongside the air-water heat pump, when necessary
or as an alternative. The boilers can then switch on when the heat produced
by the heat pumps is no longer cost-efficient.
The integration unit joins the two different heat generation systems (boiler and air-water heat pump) with a simple, compact unit that can
be also easily housed in a wall-mounting box. With this system, it is not forced the use of the same manufacturer for both the boiler and the
heat pump: in fact, these two devices are technologically very different.
Renewable Energy | 4.1
Energy from the air

The outside air is a free source of energy that does not need to be
extracted and is extremely easy to find: it is also heated directly
by the sun. Systems that draw thermal energy from the air can be
made with air-air or air-water heat pumps.
Energy from the ground

Soil contains an enormous amount of heat which comes from the
earths hot core or from other renewable sources, such as sun,
wind and rain.
A water/heat pump working in combination with geothermal
probes will use low enthalpy geothermal energy for heating.
Energy from water

Groundwater temperature is usually between 8C to 12C and
is particularly suitable for use with hydrothermal heat pumps.
However, systems drawing heat from groundwater are subject to
restrictions regarding both how the water is collected and how it
is subsequently disposed of: for this reason, specific permits must
be obtained.

Function
The integration unit provides a simple means of connecting the hydraulic
circuits of the heat pump and boiler to the heating system terminals, using
a special fitting that allows the three circuits to be joined together in a
compact way.
Function is controlled by the electronic regulator which automatically
activates and manages the heat pump or the boiler depending on the
temperature of the outside air measured by the probe.
The regulator activates the heat pump when requested by the ambient
regulator and the outside air temperature has risen above the preset
switching temperature (setpoint temperature). It activates the boiler when
requested by the ambient regulator and the outside air temperature is
below the switching temperature.
The switching over is made by means of a diverter switch that closes the
contact of the thermostat towards the boiler or the heat pump, through a
relais if needed.

actuator
The actuator is equipped with
a control lever (2), that can be
operated by pressing the button (1).
The control lever can be used
to actuate the switching valve
manually: depending on the
position of the valve, the lever can
be used to switch between the two
sources.
Electronic regulator
The regulator manages all operating aspects of the system. It has a terminal
board with six connections for the electric supply, outside probe, diverter kit,
heat pump, boiler and ambient heat regulator.
From the display, you can set the switching temperature and view the
temperature read by the outside probe.

The diverter kit allows to easily connect the 3 circuits together (2

inlets and 1 outlet) without having to overcome pipes.
The diverter valve has very low head losses, in relation to the
rated flow rates normally used, and features short operating times:
it allows therefore a fast system commissioning and prevents any
water-hammer.
The valve is coupled to an actuator fitted with microswitches that
can be used to activate and deactivate devices according to the
working position of the valve.

Integration Unit and Diverter Kit Specifications | 4.5
Construction details
The diverter kit was designed to be compact and easily adaptable
to existing systems. More than one kit can be connected in series
to meet the needs of more complex systems.
Pre-formed insulation
Thanks to the hot pre-formed shell insulation, supplied in the
package, that prevents condensation build-up on the valve body
surface, the kit can also be used in cooling systems.
This system, moreover, ensures not only perfect thermal insulation,
but also the resistance to the diffusion of water vapour from the
ambient toward inside.
Thermal decoupler
Between the valve body and the actuator there is a polymer thermal
decoupler, which contains two stainless steel stems and a central
insulating ring. This prevents the transmission of heat from/to the
electric actuator. This heat is generated by the flow of the thermal
medium in the valve. This prevents condensation build-up inside the
actuator.
The ball inside the diverter valve was designed to optimize and
balance the flow passage in both the working configurations.
Even though the passage in position A is more efficient (Kv = 13)
compared to the passage in position B (Kv=8), the difference is
minimal in standard system configurations.

Operating principle
The anti-freeze protection unit code 109600 can only be installed when the heat pump has an external circulator.
The system operates in the event of failure of electric
supply to the heating system or should the heat pump
malfunction.
In the event of a blackout, the system separates the internal
part from the outside part of the system at the level of
the check valve (2) and differential valve (3): the obturator
mechanically closes due to the missing of the pump suction
at the pressure port (7). When the outside condition are
not freezing (T > 4C) the water in the outside part of
the system is not discharged so that when electric supply
returns, the circulator restarts, the differential valve
obturator (3) opens and the system recommence normal
operation.
If the outside conditions makes the water temperature be
< 3C, after any electric supply failure, the group separates
the outside part from the internal part of the system and
the anti-freeze valve (4) comes into operation thus draining
the outside part of the system. When electric supply
returns, the circulator starts again, the differential valve
obturator (3) opens, the anti-freeze valve (4) closes, since
the temperature of the water inside the building is above
3C, and the filling unit (8) recharges the system to the
nominal pressure value. In this phase the air vent (1) and
deaerator (9) remove any air from the system.
In the event of a heat pump failure, with subsequent drop
in the water temperature within the system (the circulation
pump keeps running but there is no longer any heat
exchange in the machine), the safety thermostat (6) would
operate.
When the water reaches a temperature of 10C, the
thermostat (6) actuates and via the regulator (5) stops the
circulation pump, thereby triggering the procedure described
above for electric supply failures.

Operating principle
The anti-freeze protection unit code 109610 can be installed when the heat pump has an internal circulator.
The system actuates in the event of failure of electric
supply to the heating system or should the heat pump
malfunction.
In the event of a electric supply failure, the system
separates the internal part of the system from the outside
part at the level of the check valve (2) and the normallyclosed solenoid valve (3).
If the water temperature inside the pipes remains above
4C, the anti-freeze valve obturator stays closed and the
pipe remains in pressure.
When the water temperature in the pipes reaches 4C,
the thermostat in the anti-freeze valve (4) allows the
obturator to open and drain the water in the outside part
of the pipes.
When electric supply returns, the solenoid valve opens,
the filling unit recharges the system to the nominal
pressure setting and the anti-freeze valve closes, allowing
circulation in the system to restart: the air vent (1) and
deaerator-dirt separator (9) remove any excess air.
In the event of a heat pump failure, with subsequent
drop in the water temperature within the system (the
circulation pump keeps running but there is no longer any
heat exchange in the machine), the safety thermostat (6)
would operate.
When the water reaches a temperature of 10C, the
thermostat (6) actuates and via the regulator (5) stops the
electric supply to the solenoid valve, thereby triggering the
procedure described above for electric supply failures.

4.8 | Components for Ground Source Heat Pump Systems
The products in the CALEFFIGEO series have been conceived specifically for use in heat pump
systems. In ground source heat pumps a mixture of water and anti-freeze fluid is generally used
to protect against freezing temperatures. The components are made with high-performance
materials for this type of applications.
Systems with horizontal probes
Heat pump systems with horizontal probes use heat that accumulates in the
earth. To be installed, they need large areas clear of construction, paving or
vegetation.
Pipes made of polyethylene (or reticulated polyethylene, depending on the
type of ground) are inserted horizontally into the ground in an excavation
from 1 to 3 m deep with a centre distance of 50 to 80 cm. After laying, the
excavated ground is put back and compacted.
The sizing of the manifolds is performed according to the thermal efficiency
of the ground, which is affected by its composition, compactness and the
quantity of water it contains.
It is necessary to pay attention to the sizing to prevent not only
malfunctioning and low output of the heat pump, but also to prevent harmful
consequences for vegetation such as freezing roots.
Systems with vertical probes

Systems with vertical ground source probes are based on the fact that, below
a depth of 20 m, the temperature of the subsoil is constant; below 20 m, the
temperature of the ground increases by approximately 3C every 100 m in
depth.
Vertical probes, varying in length from 20 to 150 m, and configured in either
one or two U-circuits are inserted into the ground. They are made with high
resistance PE pipes (generally with the following diameters: DN 25, DN 32
and DN 40) specific for ground source applications. To aid their insertion in
the holes, these circuits are ballasted with special disposable weights of 15
20 kg. After laying the circuits, the gap between the wall of the hole and the
pipe is filled.
Geothermal system components

Usually, geothermal probes are connected
to the system via a manifold fitted with
balancing valves: in fact, system balancing
is necessary to guarantee proper heat
exchange in the ground.
It is advisable to install all safety and control
devices, normally used in closed circuit
systems, between the geothermal manifold
and the heat pump, to guarantee proper
system and machine operation.
Distribution Manifolds | 4.9
The entire modular distribution manifold has been designed to be easily assembled on a bench and afterwards hooked onto wall brackets.
This feature facilitates preparation of the probes and simple connection to the manifold.
The manifold is modular to allow it to be adapted to small residential systems in which the number of probes generally vary from 2 to 8.
The number of single modules used is defined by the number of probes.
The manifold is also available in a preassembled version.
The modules have been designed to limit condensation. An air gap isolates
the medium from the outside environment.
Two brass blind end plugs and four tie-rods permit compaction of the
modules. A seal in between isolates the water duct and the single air
chambers.
The manifold is reversible to adapt the position of the probes with respect
to the heat pump.
The bracket can be secured to a

wall with no manifold so as
to facilitate connecting the probes.

Using Vortex effect sensor

Sensors use the von Krmn vortex tail effect that allow to measure the
average speed of a circulating medium.
The shut-off valve is fitted for installing the integrated flow-rate measuring
Vortex-effect sensor.
The sensor is fitted to a body in composite material, similar to the cap that
can be therefore replaced with the sensor during flow-rating reading and
balancing phase. The ball was in fact designed to accommodate the sensor.
The cap can be replaced with the sensor while the system is still running:
close the valve using the provided knob, remove the lock and the clip then
pull out the cap.

The balancing valve is an hydraulic device that allows to regulate the

medium flow rate passing through.
The regulating action is made by a ball obturator (1), operated by a
control stem (2). The flow rate is controlled by mens of a flow meter (3)
housed in a by-pass circuit, on the valve body, that can be shut off during
normal functioning. The flow rate value is indicated by a metal ball (4),
sliding within a transparent guide (5), marked alongside by a graduated

transparent, longitudinal tapered cross-section PSU pipe, containing a
cylindrical-tapered floating device featuring a slightly smaller diameter
than the pipes minimum diameter.
Operation is only permitted when the flow meter is vertical,
with the widest internal diameter at the top. The medium
flows vertically from the bottom toward the top, exerting a

(including fisheries and aquaculture), as well as the biodegradable fraction of industrial and
municipal waste. Biomass can be in the form of a solid, liquid or gas. This line of Caleffi
products has been specifically designed for wood solid biomass (solid fuel).
Solid fuel generators can be classified in two macro-categories:
SOLID FUEL GENERATORS
PELLETS
1) Boilers: generators for solid fuels, hand and automatically stoked, to be installed in
specific technical rooms. Heating takes place via a hydraulic connection to the heating
system.
2) Residential devices: residential solid fuels burning appliances with boiler, not exceeding
a total nominal heat output of 35 kW, installed directly inside the dwelling. Hand or
automatically stoked. Heating takes place via air and water circulation, with a hydraulic
connection to the heating system. Residential devices can be classified in three types:
- Fireplace heating systems
- Thermostoves
- Thermocookers
WOODCHIPS
The generators are further divided according to their fuel stoking system:
Hand stoking, typically that of log-burning generators, requires an operator to put the
blocks of wood into the generator stoking compartment.
Automatic stoking refers to the last device conveying the fuel (for example pellets or
woodchips) from the storage tank to the combustion chamber.

The standards classify systems according to the expansion system (open or closed vessel) and according to the system for stoking fuel into the generator, by
hand (logs) or automatic (pellets, woodchips etc.).

Function
The anti-condensation valve, used in heating systems with a solid fuel
generator, automatically regulates at the set value the temperature of the
water returning to the generator.
Keeping the boiler at a high temperature prevents condensation of the
water vapour contained in the flue gas.
Condensation produces tarry deposits that, accumulating on the metal
surfaces of the flue gas-system water exchanger, cause corrosion, reduce
the thermal efficiency of the flue gas-system water exchanger and are a
source of danger for the flue gas chimney as they are flammable.
The anti-condensation valve gives the generator a longer life and ensures
greater efficiency.

Operating principle
The thermostat, completely immersed in the medium, controls the movement of an obturator that regulates the flows in by-pass and toward the system.
On starting up the generator, the anti-condensation valve recirculates the flow water so as to bring the generator up to temperature as quickly as possible (1).
When the flow temperature Tf exceeds the set of the anti-condensation valve Tset, the valves cold port starts opening to produce the mixing Tmix: in this
phase the system loading begins (2). When the generator return temperature Tmix is greater than the setting of the anti-condensation valve by approximately
10C, the by-pass port gets closed and water returns to the generator at the same temperature of the system return (3 and 4).

the valve body for maintenance or replacement if necessary.
Natural circulation clapet valve
The function of this clapet device is to ensure
natural circulation of the medium in the event of
pump stop due to an electric power failure. When
the pump is active, the thrust of medium keeps the
valve closed, forcing the water to flow through the
anti-condensation thermostatic valve. If the event
of pump stop, when the water within the boiler is at
high temperature, a natural circulation of the water
begins, by-passing the anti-condensation valve, thus
preventing the temperature in the generator from
reaching dangerous high levels. The unit is provided with natural circulation
valve locked. To activate its function, remove the locking screw.
Dirt separator
In order to carry out continuous dirt separation in the system it is
available the 5462 series DIRTCAL dirt separator as
accessory.

The regulator allows the management of a thermal system complete with solid fuel generator, a boiler and an inertial water storage in parallel.
The phases of storage loading and unloading are automatically controlled, according to the system needs, with the consequent activation or deactivation of
the boiler and the solid fuel generator.
Depending on the system type, different programs are available to design various functional configurations, both for the heating and the domestic hot water
production.

CarbonNeutral
Environmentally
positive
To Altecnic, being CarbonNeutral
since 2007, doesnt mean resting
on our laurels. We donate money to
environmental projects which we
can see making a big difference to
communities - from reforestation
in Wales to wind farms in New
Zealand or energy-saving lightbulbs
in Jamaica.
But this mindset also means we approach
new legislation positively in our product
design. We were first to meet the Part
G legislation of the Building Regulations
with our patented Calflow Plus water flow
regulator and isolation valve. Closely linked
with our manufacturing partners we are
constantly working towards increased product
efficiency to anticipate future standards.
Working with The CarbonNeutral company
and the Edinburgh centre for Carbon
Management, we followed a 3 phase process,
in turn assessing our carbon footprint, taking
steps to reduce it, then investing in carbon
offset projects world-wide.
We were the first in our industry to become
CarbonNeutral, and our reduced energy
bills are the evidence that environmental
responsibility wins in several ways. Many of
the Altecnic workforce have carried these
principles into their homes, where theyre
saving carbon and cost.

Mustang Drive, Stafford, Staffordshire ST16 1GW
We are continuing to work actively to reduce

our environmental impact while producing
products that save resources and energy.
Products, therefore, with a future.
