Altecnic / Caleffi 309 Series Pressure & Temperature Relief Valve 1/2

Altecnic / Caleffi 309 Series Pressure & Temperature Relief Valve 1/2" 90°C 7 Bar - 309473CST

The Altecnic / Caleffi 309 Pressure & Temperature Relief Valve - 309473CST is designed to effectively control and limit the temperature and pressure of hot water in domestic storage heaters. This essential safety device prevents water temperatures from exceeding 100°C, thereby eliminating the risk of steam formation. When the system reaches predetermined pressure or temperature thresholds, the valve discharges a sufficient amount of water into the atmosphere, ensuring that both temperature and pressure are maintained within safe operating limits. The valve's mechanism operates as follows: - **Temperature Control:** As the temperature in the storage heater rises, the thermostat compound within the temperature sensor, which is submerged in hot water, expands. This expansion causes a thrust pin to move, actuating the obturator and opening the valve. The valve is set to activate at temperatures exceeding 90°C. - **Pressure Control:** When pressure limits are reached, the obturator, which is opposed by a set spring, lifts and fully opens the outlet. The pressure setting is specifically configured according to the maximum allowable pressure within the system. As temperature and pressure subside, the valve automatically re-closes within designated tolerances.
