Boiler safety group for heating systems

Boiler safety group for heating systems is a set of devices and fittings designed to ensure safe and reliable operation of heating systems, especially when they use closed systems with heated media. It includes various elements such as valves, pressure gauges, automatic condensate drains and expansion tanks that prevent overheating, pressure drops and other emergency situations.

Boiler Safety Group: Main Components

1. Safety valve - a device that automatically activates when the maximum pressure in the system is reached, releasing excess pressure to prevent equipment damage.
2. Pressure gauge - a device for measuring pressure in a system, providing operators with information about the current status and operation of the system.
3. Expansion tank - a container designed to compensate for changes in the volume of coolant in the system when its temperature changes, which helps prevent pressure increases and ensure stable operation of the system.
4. Automatic condensate drain — a device for removing condensate from the heating system, which can accumulate in radiators or pipes and interfere with normal operation (the system may contain automatic air vent).
5. Shut-off fittings and valves — used to regulate the flow of coolant and prevent reverse flow.

Functions of the boiler safety group for heating systems:

• overheat protection — preventing system temperatures from rising, which could lead to equipment damage or leaks.
• Pressure control — maintaining stable pressure in the system, which is important for normal operation and safety.
• Ensuring reliable operation — reducing the risk of emergency situations and abnormal failures in the heating system.

Application of a safety group for heating systems:

The boiler safety group is used in various types of heating systems, including central heating boilers, individual boiler units, heat pumps and others. They are mandatory for closed-loop systems where it is necessary to control and maintain certain operating parameters to ensure the efficiency and safety of the entire heating system.
