Ideal Logic Air Filter Ball Valve 236738
The Ideal Logic Air Filter Ball Valve (MPN: 236738) combines a heavy-duty ball valve with a stainless steel strainer mesh in a brass housing for use with the Ideal Logic Air monoblock heat pump systems. With a filter cartridge almost twice the surface area of similar filter valves on the market, it is designed to trap and hold large volumes of dirt and debris present in your system. This valve is suited for pressure up to 30 bar and temperatures of 140°C, while giving heating engineers access to a filter valve for servicing, without needing to drain the full system.
Features and Benefits: Ideal Logic Air Filter Ball Valve
Two-in-One Design: Merges full-bore isolation ball valve with an inline strainer to take up less room on installation and remove additional leak points from threaded joints.
Double-Length Strainer Mesh: With a 500-micron stainless steel filter element that is almost twice the surface area of other valves reduces drops in system pressure.
30 Bar / 140°C Rating: Built to resist surges in pressure and thermal shocks as well as harsh glycol/antifreeze mixtures, without compromising the water tight seal.
Plate Heat Exchanger Protection: Can catch solder beads, pipe scale, and any other mechanical debris prior to reaching the plate heat exchanger inside the heat pump unit.
Quick In-Situ Servicing: Simply turn off the lever and remove the hex filter cap, take out the stainless basket and rinse. It’s as easy as that, with no full system draining required.
Performance & Durability
Other valves can clog quickly which can trigger low-flow fault codes. The Ideal Logic Air valve gives a greater mesh surface area to allow for high volumetric flow rates (L/min), even as system debris begins to build up.
Brazed plate heat exchangers in heat pumps are designed with narrow passages to boost their thermal transfer. Sadly, this can cause problems, as even the smallest flecks of copper or scale can block these channels and damage flow meters contained within. The installation of a large capacity 500-micron filter valve gives a direct barrier and guarantees reliable collection of debris.
