Automatic air vent valve 1/2" with check valve, brass (ODP.A15MO)

Product detailed description

Automatic air vent valve 1/2" with check valve, brass.

Designed for automatically venting central-heating installations. Air, which is naturally released from the water during operation of the heating system and collects at the highest points, can cause air pockets, noise and reduced output from radiators or underfloor heating. The automatic air vent valve continuously removes this air from the system without operator intervention, while the built-in check valve prevents water from escaping.

Technical parameters

• Material: mosadz
• Connection: 1/2"
• Max. pressure: 10 bar
• Max. operating temperature: 120 °C
• Function: automatic venting with a check valve against water loss

Installation

The valve is installed at the highest point of the heating system (e.g. on a manifold, boiler or riser pipe), where air naturally collects. Thanks to automatic operation it requires no manual venting or regular servicing.

Frequently asked questions

• How do I check that this part is compatible with my manifold? Compare the thread/connection type (e.g. Eurocone EK, M30x1.5) and the size stated in this product's name with the technical data of your specific manifold - brass manifolds from different manufacturers can have different connection sizes.
• Must installation be done by a professional? A skilled home handyman can fit simple parts (brackets, unions, flow meters) onto an already installed manifold; we recommend having the connection to a working heating circuit and its balancing checked by a heating technician.
• Why is brass a common material choice for manifolds and their accessories? Brass is a long-proven material resistant to corrosion in water/heating systems, is easy to machine into precise threads, and withstands the typical operating temperatures and pressures of heating water.
