Selection Notes
- Max. operating pressure PMO 13 bar g (at 220 °C): the AV13 is not suitable for higher system pressures

- 1/2" connection as Rp (BSP, ISO 7-1) or NPT: check the thread type against the pipework before ordering
- Install with the capsule horizontal and the cap on top; pipe the discharge to a safe place (up to 100 °C)
- Allow 55 mm withdrawal distance for the cap; capsule and seat can be replaced with the vent in the line
