PRODUCT DATA
Application
The DU146 M automatic bypass and differential pressure
valve is used to maintain constant differential pressure in a
heating system. It reduces flow noise in a system, particularly
as thermostatic radiator valves are closing. The boiler return
temperature is raised and this reduces the corrosion caused
by flue gas condensation. In addition, when radiator valves
are closed it also maintains flow over the temperature sensor
on the boiler to ensure proper operation of external temperature compensating controls. On gas fired water heaters it
guarantees a minimum flow circulation when thermostats or
radiator valves are closed.
Features
• Simple installation between the flow and return pipe-
work
• Minimises flow noise
• No external controls required
• Differential pressure finely adjustable
• Problemlose Einregulierung durch eingebaute
Differenzdruck-Istwertanzeige
• Hinders boiler corrosion
• Setting value is in meters water column
• Tried and tested

Function
At equal pressure between the inlet and outlet side the valve
is closed. The valve disc is pushed by a spring against the
valve seat. If there is a pressure difference between the inlet
and outlet sides, then a force is exerted on the valve disc and
against the spring. If this force exceeds the force of the
spring, then the valve begins to open in proportion to the rise
in differential pressure and maintains a constant bypas s flow
as indicated on the flow diagram.
