Easier setting up for underfloor heating

12 March, 2006

This device from Emmeti combines the functions of double-regulating valve, lockshield and flow meter — making it much easier and quicker to commission underfloor heating.

Emmeti has added new functions to its Topway manifold system, which can be used with underfloor heating systems. A new component combines the functions of double-regulating valve, lockshield and flow meter. The integrated flow meter saves time and cost, both at initial installation and later maintenance. During commissioning, it is said to enable unusually accurate setting of lower flow rates than other devices — saving energy. It also eliminates the need for two tools, so commissioning is easier as well as quicker. The flow set during commissioning is retained when the circuit is isolated, so there is no need for recalibration when the circuit is reopened. This device can be used to upgrade an ordinary double-regulating lockshield valve to an integrated flow-meter version.
