What is the Reliance TPR28?
The RWC TPR28 temperature and pressure relief valve is your trusted safety companion in hot water systems. It is designed to provide reliable protection against over-pressurisation and high temperatures, and this valve is an essential safety measure that ensures peace of mind.
Where is the TPR28 valve located?
Unvented hot water cylinder systems can occasionally encounter failures in input temperature control, leading to potential over-pressurisation risks. The Reliance TPR28 is strategically positioned in the upper portion of the unvented cylinder, precisely where the highest temperature rise is observed. This smart placement allows it to effectively respond to temperature fluctuations and safeguard your system, protecting you from any unwanted personal or property damage.
How does the TPR28 temperature & pressure relief valve work?
It is equipped with a unique wax-filled mechanism making the TPR28 respond promptly when the temperature exceeds 95°C. As the temperature rises, the wax expands, causing the valve to lift off its seat, allowing water to flow safely into the waste pipe. The valve remains securely closed until the relief mechanism's preset pressure is reached. At that point, it automatically opens to release any excess pressure that may have accumulated in the hot water system.
