Low-Loss Header
- Type 80/50, Part No. 7134 791
[max. flow rate 17.6 GPM (4 m3/h)]
- Type 120/80, Part No. 7134 792

A low-loss header offers additional benefits
not provided by a pair of closely spaced
tees. Viessmann strongly recommends
and prefers the use of a low-loss header
over closely spaced tees. When used in
conjunction with the Vitodens 100-W
boiler, the low-loss header acts as
hydraulic break, decoupling boiler and
system circuits from each other (no
sensor required). It is recommended to
use the low-loss header in applications in
which the total system flow rate exceeds
the maximum or falls below the minimum
flow rate of the Vitodens 100-W boiler.

The low-loss header is available in the following sizes.
Select the size based on the maximum system flow rate
of your application.

When installing a low-loss header, system mixed supply
temperature (T3) must be calculated as follows
For maximum boiler flow rates, see the table on page 11
in this manual.
Viessmann strongly recommends the use of a low-loss
header in cases where the system head and flow rates
are unknown.
In addition, the low-loss header helps eliminate air and
debris [D] from the heating system. See illustrations for
Low-loss header design and the principle of operation.
