The spring, CE marked safety valves are mandatory for obtaining the CE mark on our steam generators.
Depending on the size of the boiler one or two valves are fitted. These are set by the valve manufacturer to a pressure below or equal to the maximum rated pressure of the boiler.
The safety valves intervene instantaneously in case the set pressure is reached thus they are detrimental to the safety of the system and should not be tampered with in any way. This type of valve have an appropriate lever for testing the efficiency and the free flow of steam.
