Application
RTD-CB back-flow restrictor RTD-BR bypass restrictor
Principle
The RTD-CB back-flow restrictor prevents radiator
back-flow and heat transfer at the return pipe in a
one-pipe system.
The RTD-BR bypass restrictor decreases flow
through the bypass in a one-pipe system, thus
forcing the correct amount of system water to
pass through the radiator.
The back-flow restrictor is installed in the radiator
return pipe with the bow pointing upwards.
The bypass restrictor will decrease the bypass
with one dimension ( e.g. DN 20 > DN 15).
The bypass restrictor is installed in the bypass by
the radiator.

Heat Transfer
The RTD-CB back-flow restrictor reduces heat
transfer from system pipes to radiator, when the
TRV is closed.
With the bypass placed 175 mm from the
radiator, a flow temperature of 90 ˚C and a room
temperature of 20 ˚C, the max. detected
