Caleffi DSV531 Technical Data
Diaphragm safety valve, for potable water systems
The Caleffi Safety Valve has been designed to meet the requirements of many
engineers and designers and is also the result of many years of experience in
meeting international safety regulations.
Caleffi DSV’s offers the greatest safety, thanks to the following
characteristics:
- Fail-safe Valve performance is ensured even in the case of diaphragm wear or breakage.
- Discharge over pressure 20%.
- Closing pressure 20%. It allows minimization of damage due to water leakage in the case of accidental opening of the valve.
- Maximum working temperature: 100°C
- Factory set: 4 – 6 -8 – 10 bar
- Increased outlet diameter. This characteristic, prescribed by the main European Standards, considerably reduces the possible decrease of discharge capacity or possible variation in the opening or closing behavior, due to the presence of piping.
- Metallic construction. The body and knob, in copper alloy, are particularly strong.
This guarantees the maximum safety in the case of damage from accidental breakage.
Sizing
Size according to the table below observing both the kW rating and maximum storage capacity.
Sizing Table
Inlet Size| 1/2”| 3/4”| 1”| 1&1/4”
Outlet Size| 3/4”| 1”| 1&1/4”| 1&1/2”
Max.kW| 75| 150| 250| 400
Max.Litres| 200| 1000| 5000| >5000
The kPA rating of the valve selected should be a minimum of 200kPA higher than the static cold water system pressure.
Installation
Before installing a safety relief valve ,correct sizing must be carried out by
specialist technical personnel in accordance with the current legislation.
The valve must be installed on a tee in line, with the flow direction
indicated by the arrow on the valve body.
On a domestic hot water system the valve must be installed close to the hot
water storage, taking care not to fit any shut off devices between the valve
and the storage cylinder.
The valve can be installed vertically or horizontally but not upside down.
