The HM12/12 is a thermostatic air vent designed to automatically remove air and other non-condensable gases from steam systems, which improves heat transfer efficiency and prevents corrosion. Question? Is this unit suitable for applications with pressures higher than 4 bar? No, the ‘4 bar’ rating on the tag indicates the maximum differential pressure (PMO) for this specific thermostatic element. While the body is rated PN16, the internal element is calibrated for a maximum of 4 bar. Question? What does the ‘GG20’ marking on the body mean? GG20 is a DIN standard designation for a type of flake graphite cast iron. It indicates the material of the valve body, known for its good pressure tightness and durability in steam applications. profideals is not an authorized distributor, reseller or representative of the products featured on this website.
