Angle cock for radiator. device and overall dimensions.

Batteries for space heating are structures designed for heat exchange. System piping is usually connected to each side. In connection with the possibility of unforeseen situations, the installation of valves, the main elements of which are often corner valves for radiators, may be provided.

Main purpose

Products for shutting off the coolant supply are installed in district heating networks, as well as in individual buildings of various types. With their help, it is possible to significantly improve the functionality of a particular heating system.

Shut-off valves are usually installed on the inlet and outlet pipelines, thereby opening up wide possibilities.

• If necessary, you can replace the heater without first removing the coolant from the system.
• By means of a crane, it is possible to control the temperature conditions in a particular room, saving energy resources.
• Cleaning the radiator can also be done without draining the working medium from the heating network.

Note! Usually, an angular type ball valve is mounted directly in front of the heater on the inlet and outlet pipe of a two-pipe home heating system.

Basic information

The radiator polypropylene corner valve is quite popular with modern heating networks. Its price is actually low, but it allows for reliable operation of the communication system. Polymeric material is able to withstand significant temperature differences.

Product Specifications

Devices with a polypropylene housing are excellent for blocking the flow of the working medium in water heating systems. The table below shows the technical characteristics of this device so that novice masters can familiarize themselves with them.

Attention! Despite the active use of polypropylene in the manufacture of similar products, other materials may be used in the production process. Brass is not less popular, for example.

Device fixture

The body of the product is made of polypropylene, while the outer part contains a white dye, and the inner part does not. Under the clip there is a brass insert part, equipped with a special thread, by means of which a special element is fixed with a sealing ring.

The handle is most often made of lightweight plastic. With a small screw, it is attached to a brass rod, which has a pair of stuffing boxes. The flow of the working fluid is blocked due to the ball valve.

dimensions

Angle radiator valve 1 2 has a height of 88 mm. The distance from the top of the valve to the central axis is 58 mm, and from the start of the threaded connection to the central axis - 57 mm. As for the weight, then such a product weighs exactly 160 g.

The radiator angle cock 25 3 4 has a height of 99 mm. From the edge of the valve to the central axis, the distance is 59 mm, and from the thread - 69 mm. Such a device weighs 230 g.

Installation recommendations

• Products can be installed in any position.. There should be no contamination on the surface of the device. All work should be carried out at an air temperature of at least +10 degrees.
• The spigot is attached with the wheel key. After hand tightening, the union nut is tightened by about half a turn. The thread is sealed with PTFE sealing material.
• Fastening of the crane to the pipe of polypropylene is carried out by thermal exposure. During the work uses a special welding machine. Working temperature is usually 260 degrees.

Operation and maintenance

Products must be used at certain temperature conditions and pressures. These indicators are set out in the table with technical characteristics. The body of the product should not be exposed to chemicals that can react with polypropylene.

Cases with freezing of the working environment in the internal part of the device should be avoided, as this may cause damage to the main parts. When draining the network, it is advisable to leave the tap open so that the liquid does not remain in the cavities.

Storage and transportation

Products must be stored taking into account paragraphs GOST 15150, which reflects the basic requirements. Products should be fully protected from prolonged exposure to sunlight. Ventilated awnings are recommended as the main receptacle.

As for transportation, it can be carried out by any transport, since the products are not classified as special cargo. Loading and unloading operations should be carried out at a temperature not lower than -10 degrees. If transportation is carried out in frosty conditions, then certain measures must be taken to prevent the transfer of mechanical loads.

Final part

Special attention should be paid radiator corner valve with an American under pa. It is based on a quick-release coupling consisting of three elements in the form of a cap nut and counter parts. Additional instructions for installing products are presented in the video in this article. After getting acquainted with it, installation work can be easily done by hand.
