|
WTX TANK |
| Potable water well tank provides
water under pressure between pump cycles to meet the required demand. It protects the pump
against short cycling which will help extend the life of the pump and save energy. |
|
|
BOILER |
| A boiler is a closed vessel in which
water or other fluid is heated under pressure. The heated water is circulated though out the
system to provide space heating, pool heating, hot domestic potable water heating, etc. |
|
|
EASB-JR AIR SEPARATOR |
| EASB-JR Air Separator is designed
to automatically remove entrained air bubbles in hydronic systems. As fluid enters the air
separator, the velocity is decreased creating a low-pressure area. The small bubbles are
released from fluid and then collect on the coalescing medium. As the bubbles coalesce,
they rise to the top of the air separator where they are released to atmosphere through
the built-in automatic air vent. |

GUARD DOG LOW WATER
CUT-OFF |
| A low water cut-off does two
things. First, it accurately detects a low water condition should it occur. Second, it
automatically shuts down the combustion operation of the boiler. This will prevent the
boiler from firing while its water level is too low to properly manage the heat and
energy. A low water cut-off is required by code in many states in the USA and many boiler
manufacturers stipulate that cut-offs are to be routinely installed, especially if
radiation is installed below the level of the boiler. |

|
ASME SAFETY RELIEF VALVE |
| B&G diaphragm operated cast iron and diaphragm-assist
operated bronze ASME Safety Relief Valves are designed to protect fired and unfired hot water pressure vessels
against over-pressure conditions. |
|
|
PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE |
| B&G reducing valves protect heating and plumbing
systems against excessive line pressures. |
|
|
ZONE PUMP for indirect hot water heater |
| Circulates boiler water through a heat exchanger inside of the
indirect hot water heater (HWR) to make hot potable water. |
|
|
INDIRECT HOT WATER HEATER |
| Indirect hot water heater provides domestic potable hot water for the house. Hot water
from the boiler is circulated through a heat exchanger submerged in the potable water. |
|
|
HFT DIAPHRAGM TANK |
| HFT Diaphragm Tank is used to absorb the force of thermal expansion
on the boiler loop when the closed loop boiler system water is increased and to maintain proper
pressurization. |
|
|
PT DIAPHRAGM TANK |
| PT Diaphragm Tank is used to absorb the forces of expanding water
and protect a potable water system from pressure build-up. |
|
|
BACKFLOW PREVENTER |
| Backflow Preventer - with intermediate atmospheric
vent is designed to protect domestic (drinking) water supply system from contaminated boiler fluid cause
from back-siphonage and back pressure. |
|
|
Y-STRAINER |
| Y- Strainer collects dirt and
debris in the system to protect the other components in the system. |
