Specifically designed for monobloc heat pump systems, this valve allows to drain circuit fluids when the temperature drops to 1 °C.  NOTE. Freezing protection valve is designed to work with glycol-free heat pump systems.  VIDEO Frame the QR code with your smartphone or tablet to view the video tutorial.

If the drain of the freezing protection valve is closed, it will remain closed until the water temperature drops below 1 °C. If the drain of the freezing protection valve is open, draining the water, it remains open and keeps draining until the water temperature returns above 4 °C.  Operation When the water temperature drops down to 1 °C, the valve opens and drain the pipe to prevent freezing.  NOTE. During normal operation of the heat pump, the chances for the fluid temperature to drop below 1 °C are extremely remote. Freezing protection valves generally brake into action when the heat pump is cut off from power for extended periods of time (such as blackouts and failures). R148HP R148HP T ≥ 4°C T ≥ 4°C R148HP R148HP T ≤ 1°C T ≤ 1°C/ban_circle The freezing protection valve activates when the temperature of the glycol-free water reaches the freezing temperature. When the temperature of the water rises above 4 °C, the freezing protection valve closes and the system returns to normal operations. R148HP R148HP T ≥ 4°C T ≥ 4°C R148HP R148HP T ≤ 1°C T ≤ 1°C/ban_circle  WARNING. Following a power cut off to the heat pump, check the system pressure.

  • the freezing protection valve should NOT be insulated or covered by other materials.
  • avoid siphoning as it may prevent drainage of the fluid left in the circuit.
  • provide for an automatic filling unit, always active and open.
  • before installation, clean the system pipes and install appropriate filtering devices. >15 cm >10 cm Freezing protection valves must be installed:
  • only vertically, with the drain facing downwards.
  • with the drain facing downward to channel the drain fluid to an appropriate collection point and avoid the formation of ice in trampling areas. Leave a gap of at least 15 cm between the drain valve and the collection point to prevent ice stacks of drained fluid.
  • on both delivery and return pipes, keeping a distance between the two valves of at least 10 cm, possibly with the pipes slightly slanted towards the freezing protection valves.
  • outside the building, on the point where the pipes may reach the lowest temperatures should the heat pump fail to work.
  • far from other heat sources and protected by rain, snow and direct sunlight. >15 cm >10 cm
