Basic Equipment
All RADIK steel panel radiators except the model RADIK VKU and the types 21 PLAN VKL, 22 PLAN VKL, 33 PLAN VKL have two upper and two lower hangers welded at the back. Radiators with length 1800 mm and longer have six welded hangers.
All radiators are equipped with an air vent. KLASIK radiators have one and VENTIL KOMPAKT two blanking plugs. All connections of RADIK steel panel radiators have the same diameter with a G ½ internal thread.
Except the types 10, 10VK, 10 VKL, 10 VKM and the models RADIK HYGIENE and RADIK HYGIENE VK, all other models are delivered with end panels and top grills fitted.
Valves for the models VK
At the time of assembly of the radiator a valve is fitted into the built-in internal circuit. It is characterized by the following data:
- value of coefficient kv - see page 11
- allows presetting of water flow at six levels - factory preset for position six
- to preset to another position a special key is required
- if any other preset position is needed, the installer should do it after rinsing the installation but before the heat comes on
- the valve is tightened at the factory to their norm
- outside connecting thread M 30 x 1.5
- the connecting thread of the valve has a white plastic cover, which gives it protection during transportation and assembly of the radiator and at the same time can be used for setting the valve in the off or on position during assembly
Calculation of the preset level of the valve:
- Two-pipe heating system
When installing VENTIL KOMPAKT steel panel radiators, it is necessary to preset the valve to such a position that the radiator will perform as calculated. It is the responsibility of the installer to make sure this has been done.
At the factory the valve is preset at level 6 and after rinsing and before the start of the heating test it must be set by a special key to the desired position.
- One - pipe heating system
When using VENTIL KOMPAKT steel panel radiators, it is necessary for the valve to be preset at level 6. To set the required water flow for the radiator, we recommend using a compact connection fitting that has a fixed or an adjustable setting to allow the water into the radiator. As an example we use the VEKOLUX compact fitting from the company HEIMEIER.
