Constructed from high-temperature plastic and featuring a higher specification hose, it offers an extra-large 1.5-liter discharge capacity. This makes it suitable for boiler condensate and PRV discharge for boilers up to 42 kilowatts, and for boiler condensate only for boilers up to 600 kilowatts. It is compatible with 2.8pH boiler condensate and includes 10 meters of 3/8 inch hose. The pump features a high-level safety switch with a maximum flow rate of 312 LPH and a maximum head of 8 meters. This is a genuine part manufactured by Hanicks.
This guide is for users of the Boss Pressure Relief And Boiler Condensate Pump (PH-3.8L-HW) who need to efficiently manage condensate and PRV discharge. This pump provides a reliable solution for handling boiler condensate and pressure relief valve discharge, with the caveat that it is essential to adhere to the specified boiler capacity limits for optimal performance and safety. This pump is designed for use with boilers up to 42kW for both condensate and PRV discharge, and up to 600kW for condensate only, ensuring efficient operation and protection of your heating system.
