Installation We recommend the immersion tube is positioned in the middle of the top of the tank. The immersion tube can be fitted to a boiler feedtank by the following methods:

1. Using an existing flange. The immersion tube is designed so that it can pass through an apperture with dimensions according to BS 1600 Schedule 40. The sandwich flange of the immersion tube is equal to the raised face diameter of the flange for which it is suitable. Gaskets are to be placed above and below the sandwich flange.

2. On new installations a specific connection should be incorporated, as described in separate literature. It is essential that a vacuum breaker is fitted to the condensate return main near to the immersion tube. Consider the use of a Spirax Sarco VB14 vacuum breaker.

How to order example: 1. Immersion tube IT150-950 in austentic stainless steel to suit DN150, PN16 flanges complete with: 2. Silicone rubber gaskets to suit DN150, PN16.
