Application 
Examples 
 
CAUTION: 
1.  Use the valve only as a mixing or straight-through valve, not a 
diverting valve. Note the direction of flow. 
2.  Ensure that adequate air venting is provided for the entire hydronic 
system. 
3.  Select a non-return valve with minimum pressure loss for the 
circulating pipes.

The low-friction and robust, maintenance-free design makes regular servicing 
unnecessary and ensures a long service life. 
The valve stem is sealed from external influences by a maintenance-free gland. 
If the red LED is lit, the electronics must be recalibrated or replaced. 
If required, the circuit board can be replaced. Order part number ASE12.
