Boiler safety group: purpose and device

For heating private houses very oftensingle-circuit boilers are used. In the event that a boiler is connected to such a boiler, in addition to the heating function, it can perform the function of heating and supplying hot water.

Such an element of construction as the groupsafety of the boiler, is simply necessary to ensure proper control of the heating system. The group is designed to protect the boiler from air and overpressure. This system includes the following elements:

• air vent with shut-off valve;
• manometer for measuring pressure;
• safety valve.

Also, the boiler safety group can be additionally equipped with various useful accessories. Such, for example, as:

• flow limiters, stopcocks, etc .;
• thermometers for measuring temperature in the street and in the room;
• various elements necessary for connecting the boiler to the boiler, etc.

Basic and additional elements that caninclude a safety group of the boiler, provide a coolant discharge in the event of a critical increase in pressure, remove gases from the system and perform many other important functions.

The importance of this system in the construction of the boiler is difficultto overestimate. It depends on the safety of both the state of the boiler itself and its owner. Therefore, it should be characterized by maximum reliability and ease of use. Choose a better product of proven brands. For example, the German Watts security group fully meets all these requirements. It includes all the basic necessary elements and is most often mounted in an upright position. The installation of the safety team, in view of the particular importance of this system in the design of the boiler, is best trusted by specialists.

At installation it is necessary to consider that fact, that betweenthe feed pipe and the group should not have any valves and taps. In the event that the tap is blocked, there is a high probability of equipment failure due to pressure build-up in the pipe. In addition, the use of stop valves in this area is not allowed.

If a water heater is connected to the boiler, its design is equipped with a system such as a boiler safety group. Usually it includes the following structural elements:

• safety valve;
• shut-off valve, which provides the possibility to manually shut off the water supply to the boiler;
• check valve.

Building or buying a house for yourself and your family,the main thing about what any modern person thinks, usually, is his safety and reliability. Therefore, be very serious about choosing such important equipment as the boiler safety group and the boiler. Domestic heating boilers are quite dangerous appliances, require proper operation with the maximum observance of all safety measures. In no case should it be allowed to replace the elements of these systems by imitating them or excluding any sensors from the general boiler circuit. Use the device correctly, and it will serve you faithfully for many years.
