Extended Product Information
FAQs
What does 'normally closed' mean for this valve?
A normally closed valve remains shut when no electrical power is applied. It opens only when the system calls for heat or hot water and receives power.
Can I install this valve myself?
Basic installation involving pipework can be done by a competent DIYer. However, electrical wiring should ideally be performed by a qualified heating engineer or electrician to ensure safety and correct system function.
What is the purpose of the end switches?
The end switches detect the valve's position (open or closed). They are used to electrically signal the central heating pump and/or boiler to turn on only when the valve is open and heat is required.
Is this valve suitable for all heating systems?
This 2-port valve is suitable for systems requiring flow control in heating and domestic hot water circuits. It's important to ensure your system requires a normally closed 2-port configuration and that the 22mm fitting size is appropriate.
How do I check if the valve is receiving power?
With the system live and calling for heat, you can use a multimeter to check for voltage at the valve's electrical terminals. Always exercise caution when working with live electrical circuits.
What is the typical lifespan of this valve?
With proper installation and system maintenance, Neomitis valves are designed for a long service life, typically many years. Regular servicing of the heating system is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Valve not opening or closing
Check electrical connections and power supply. Verify the thermostat or control system is calling for heat/hot water. Ensure there are no blockages in the pipework.
Leaking from compression fittings
Turn off the water supply and re-tighten the compression nuts. Ensure pipe surfaces are clean and undamaged. If leaks persist, consider replacing the olive or fitting.
Pump or boiler not activating
Verify the end switch wiring is correctly connected to the pump and boiler. Ensure the valve is in the open position, signaling the demand for heat.
Noisy operation
While designed for quiet operation, minor noise can occur. If noise is excessive, check for water hammer or ensure the valve is securely mounted.
Pros and Cons
Pros
Durable metal construction for long-term reliability.
Energy-efficient with minimal power consumption.
Easy integration into existing systems due to standard fittings and wiring.
Quiet operation ensures minimal disturbance.
Integrated end switches add valuable system control features.
Cons
Requires understanding of heating system wiring for optimal setup.
22mm fitting size may not be compatible with all pipework configurations without adapters.
As a normally closed valve, it may not suit all system designs that require normally open functionality.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the power supply to the valve is switched off.
Isolate the heating system's water supply.
Connect the valve to the 22mm pipework using the standard compression fittings. Ensure a secure, leak-free connection.
Wire the valve according to the system's wiring diagram and the integrated end switch requirements. Consult a qualified professional if unsure.
Restore water supply and power, then test the system.
Compatibility:
Compatible with standard 22mm heating pipework.
Designed for use with typical central heating system voltages and control signals (refer to specific system requirements).
Suitable for systems requiring a normally closed 2-port valve with pump/boiler interlock.
Care:
The exterior of the valve can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Regular system maintenance by a qualified engineer is recommended to ensure optimal valve performance and longevity.
