Optimal selection, mounting and use.

• The radiators are to be applied in sealed water installations with diaphragm pressure expansion vessels. It is possible to apply the radiators in open-vented systems as long as appropriate corrosion inhibitors are used.

• The radiators should be connected to central heating water systems which are made of black steel, copper or plastic pipes with anti-diffusion barrier. For installations with steel radiators it is only possible to apply elements of different materials if the stipulations of the PN-C-04607 standard are observed.

• The installations to which the radiators are connected must be tight, and water losses cannot exceed allowable limits depending on the installation type laid out in PN-C-40607 standard.

• The water used for filling the system and the installation water must comply with the requirements included in the PN-C-40607 standard. In special cases, the use of appropriate corrosion inhibitors may be necessary (e.g.: when applying the radiators in open-vented installations).

• It is not allowed to apply steel radiators in hot tap water circulation installations.

• It is not allowed to leave the system without water for a longer period of time. Complete draining of the system is only allowed for the period necessary to perform repairs, modernization etc. After completion of such works the system should be immediately filled with water and air bled.

• The installation in which radiators are applied must not be connected directly to the high-temperature heating system, for example through a hydro-elevator or a pump mixing loop.

• It is not recommended to use the radiators in gravity circulation heating systems (without a pump) due to relatively high flow resistance.

• The installation parameters (max temperature and pressure) must not exceed the maximum values for a given type of radiator.

The radiators are designed to be used in houses, flats, offices and other interiors with regular air humidity. It is not allowed to apply the radiators in rooms with elevated air humidity or with the presence of other aggressive corrosive agents (e.g.: swimming pools, public baths, food processing rooms, bathrooms without or with faulty ventilation systems).

The bodies of radiators aremade of high quality carbon steel with the use of generally approved andwell-triedmetal connection technologies.

The external layer is a thermosetting polyester-epoxy powder paint or galvanic coating. The stainless steel elements are not coated, some elements can also be made of different materials such as plastic, glass etc.

All radiators included in this catalogue are designed for water central heating systems performed and operated in accordance with the following standards:
