The valve is suitable for all heating and cooling systems where it is necessary to release air to prevent damage to the distribution network. It automatically releases air from the pipes as soon as the system pressure increases, and conversely prevents vacuum formation by allowing air in when water is being drained from the system. In cooling systems, it is capable of working with antifreeze mixtures based on glycol with a maximum concentration of 50% and a minimum medium temperature of -30 °C.

The high-quality materials from which the valve is made ensure long-lasting durability. The valve body is made of brass, the seal is made of EPDM, and the internal closure spring is made of stainless steel.

  • operating temperature with antifreeze -30...120 °C
  • operating pressure 14 bar

Installation

  • dimensions 47 x 57 mm
  • manifolds of any type
  • highest points of the piping
  • wall-mounted boilers
  • water heaters

Function

A float is located within the valve body. If the entire space is filled with water, the float is in the raised position and the valve remains closed, preventing any release. If the level drops and air enters the valve space, the float descends and the valve opens to release excess air. The water level then returns to its original level, and the valve closes again.

The valve has a cap that can close the entire valve, but it remains open during normal operation.

The R88 valve can be supplemented with the R160 check valve, which ensures that the entire system does not need to be drained in the event of dismantling the R88 valve.
