Safety devices
Safety
The discharge must have an easily visible flow path so
malfunctions can be recognised. Direct the discharged
water to the sewer via a siphon funnel or at least with
a pipe into the ground so that nobody can be scalded
if the valve is activated.
Even for cold water coming from a domestic well with
its own pump, a thermal emergency cooling valve must
be installed on the boiler. With a generously
dimensioned air vessel, enough water for cooling will
come even if there is a power failure. If the electricity
supply is very uncertain, a dedicated air vessel for the
thermal emergency cooling valve is required.
Safety shutdown by safety temperature limiter
For additional safety against boiler overheating, a
safety temperature limiter is built into the boiler. When
a boiler temperature of 105°C (tolerance 100 to 106°C)
is reached, it blocks the draught fan so that it can no
longer be switched on. When the boiler temperature
decreases below 70°C again, the safety temperature
limiter can be manually released for a restart of the
boiler.
Install safety valve against overpressure
A safety valve with 3 bar opening pressure must be
installed on the boiler. No shut-off valve may be
installed between the boiler and the safety valve. If
solar or other heat sources provide energy to the buffer
storage tank via a heat exchanger, a safety valve (3
bar maximum) is also required on the buffer storage
tank.
Fig. 5-2: Safety valve
Normally an expansion tank that is too small or
defective, or blocked heating lines, are the cause for
activation of the safety valve. The safety valve should
be
installed at the highest point of the heat producer or i
n the flow pipe close to the heat producer.
DANGER!
Safety valve outlet
The safety valve outlet must be directed to the ground
in a pipe so nobody is endangered by hot water or
steam.
The safety valve outlet must be directed to the
sewer via a clearly visible, open route (siphon
funnel), so that malfunctions, especially a failure of
the safety valve to close, can be detected. If no
sewer connection is available, the outlet must be
directed to the ground in a pipe.
