The AVDO range of automatic bypass
valves can be used as either differential
pressure controls or to provide a
minimum flow through a system.
Many boiler manufacturers are now
insisting that a bypass be fitted in all
installations to ensure that the volume
of water circulating through the boiler
does not fall to below a predefined
minimum, regardless of the load on
the system. Recognising the energy
efficiency advantage of such controls
the Building Regulations now require in
both new-build and boiler replacement
contexts, where a bypass is specified
by the boiler manufacturer, that an
automatic bypass is fitted. Automatic
bypass valves improve system
efficiency by opening only when there
is a need to bypass water, this usually
occurs at times of part load when
radiator thermostats in the system are
partly closed and water flow around
the boiler is restricted. In addition to
ensuring adequate flow around the
boiler, automatic bypass valves also
prevent pump pressure from climbing
significantly above design levels, thus
reducing the risk of noise in the system.
Available in a variety of sizes, the
capacity of this range of valves is very
high with large but linear changes in
water throughput for relatively small
increases in differential pressure. This
allows a 15mm valve to be used in
situations where 22mm valves are
normally required.
