NA 228 S-B
Automatic refilling unit
for compressor level control
Product specification sheet
Application
The NA 228 S-B automatic refilling unit with DVGW-tested backflow preventer permits the fixed connection of closed heating or
cooling systems to the drinking water supply network.
It integrates a backflow preventer, a check valve and a water
meter in one single unit. The automatic refilling unit maintains
pressure between prescribed upper and lower limits in closed

heating and cooling systems. It prevents back flow, back
syphonage or back pressure of the heating or cooling water
into the potable water network. Limitation of the refilling time is
provided as well as the facility for fast and automatic refilling of
the system. In addition, build up of steam in the system caused
by pressure loss is prevented.

Construction
The automatic refilling unit comprises:
● Powder coated pressed steel housing
● Drinking water and system connection with shutoff
ball valve
● Electronic time relay
● Fault indicator lamp and cut-out button
● Pressure gauges for inlet and system pressure
● Discharge tundish
● Electrical plug for compressor side connection
● ON/OFF switch
● 1 metre connection cable without plug
● Water meter
● Bush for cable connection to a building management
system
● Operating-time meter
* For temperatures above 100 ºC, the pressure at the highest point in the cold system
must be at least 1.0 bar above the operating pressure (static height plus 1.0 bar).
**A pressure reducing valve must be fitted before the refilling unit for pr essur es
above 6.0 bar

Method of Operation
If the system pressure falls below the lower set value, for
example through leakage losses, then the changeover valve is
opened by the compressor level control „lack of water“ and
thereby permits water supply to the backflow preventer. The
inlet pressure moves the backflow preventer to the flow
position and the system is refilled until the pressure rises to the
upper set limit. The time period of the refill is monitored by the
time relay and the operating time counter. Once the upper limit
value has been reached, the compressor level control „vessel

filled“ closes the changeover valve and the backflow preventer
goes to the shutoff position. The time relay then returns to the
initial position.
If the inlet pressure falls to the set pressure of the backflow
preventer during the automatic refilling operation, then the
backflow preventer (2 bar) automatically goes to the shutoff
position. The shutoff position of the backflow preventer is
indicated in the viewing window (green visible = shutoff
position)
