Rhodes 400B Sight Glass with Ball Indicator
Introducing the Rhodes 400B Sight Glass with Ball Indicator, an affordable and accessible sight flow indicator designed for optimal performance, featuring a high sensitivity ball that operates from just 0.7 l/m (water). Constructed with nitrile seals and a PTFE ball, this indicator boasts exceptional chemical resistance, further enhanced in the stainless steel variant by the inclusion of borosilicate glass as standard.
This compact sight flow indicator is widely utilised in plant protection applications, effectively displaying coolant or lubrication flow to pumps, compressors, and engines. The 'ball type' design requires horizontal mounting for accurate functionality. Unlike many competitors that source components from the Far East, Rhodes Sight Glasses are fully manufactured in the UK, utilising locally-sourced castings.

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.

Altecnic / Caleffi Pressure Relief Valve with Circlip Connection 4.5 Bar - F0000477
The Altecnic / Caleffi Relief Valve - Circlip Inlet - F0000477 is a vital component for domestic hot water systems. Designed to protect hot water cylinders and heating systems, this valve ensures the safety of boilers and related components. It is specifically chosen based on the required set pressure. When the pressure increases and reaches the predetermined discharge pressure, the valve automatically opens, releasing excess pressure into the atmosphere. This function helps to prevent potentially dangerous pressure levels within the system, thereby safeguarding both the boiler and the hot water storage cylinder, as well as ensuring the safety of nearby personnel.
