Safety & Fittings
Safety & Fittings includes important components for the safe and reliable operation of heating, storage, and hydraulic systems. These include, among others, safety valve assemblies, safety valves, expansion vessels, air vents, backflow preventers, and separators for air, sludge, and dirt particles.
The right fittings help to control pressure, temperature, water quality, and system function in the heating system. When selecting, pay particular attention to connection size, operating pressure, application area, manufacturer specifications, and proper integration into the existing system.

Safety & Fittings for Heating Systems
Safety & fittings are central components for the reliable operation of heating, storage, and hydraulic systems. They support controlled pressure maintenance, protection against overpressure, venting, the separation of drinking water and heating circuits, as well as the removal of air, sludge, and dirt particles from the system water.
In this category, you will find technical components such as expansion vessels, safety valve assemblies, safety valves, cap valves, air vents, backflow preventers, check valves, frost protection valves, sludge separators, micro-bubble separators, and thermal drain safety devices. The selection should always match the system, the medium, the operating pressure, and the planned installation situation.
Typical advantages of suitable safety fittings
- Support for safe and stable system operation
- Protection against impermissible pressure increases in the heating system
- Improved venting and water quality in the heating circuit
- Protection of sensitive components from dirt, air, and deposits
- Suitable for new construction, renovation, replacement, and system optimization
Areas of application
Safety valve and fitting components are used in many areas of heating and building services engineering. These include boiler systems, heat pump systems, storage tank systems, solar thermal connections, heating circuit manifolds, return temperature boosters, pump groups, and existing hydraulic systems in single-family homes, multi-family homes, workshops, or commercial installations.
Important selection criteria
When selecting, you should pay particular attention to the connection size, the maximum permissible operating pressure, the suitable medium, temperature resistance, the material, and the intended area of application. For safety valves, safety valve assemblies, backflow preventers, and thermal drain safety devices, the manufacturer's specifications and the requirements of the respective system are also decisive.
For a clean product selection, filters such as Manufacturer, Product type, Connection size, Maximum operating pressure, Material and Area of application be used. This allows suitable fittings and safety components to be narrowed down more precisely.
Note on professional installation
Safety-relevant components should always be selected to match the system and installed by a qualified professional. The information in the shop is for guidance only and does not replace a technical inspection, design, or installation by a qualified person.

FAQ on Safety & Fittings
Which products belong to the Safety & Fittings category?
The category includes, among others, safety valve assemblies, safety valves, expansion vessels, air vents, angle valves, check valves, backflow preventers, frost protection valves, micro bubble separators, sludge separators, and thermal drain safety devices.
What is an expansion vessel needed for in a heating system?
An expansion vessel absorbs volume changes of the heating water caused by temperature changes. This supports pressure maintenance in the heating system and helps limit pressure fluctuations.
What is the difference between a safety valve and a safety valve assembly?
A safety valve protects against impermissible overpressure. A safety valve assembly combines several functions or components depending on the version, for example safety valve, pressure gauge, connection option, or shut-off components. The exact equipment depends on the respective product.
When are sludge separators or micro bubble separators useful?
Sludge separators and micro bubble separators can be useful when air, dirt particles, or deposits in the heating system are to be reduced. They help better protect sensitive components such as pumps, valves, heat exchangers, or control valves.
Which criteria are important when selecting?
The most important factors are connection size, maximum operating pressure, temperature range, material, medium, installation position, system type, and manufacturer specifications. For safety-relevant components, the selection should always match the specific system.
Can I replace safety valves and fittings myself?
For safety-relevant components, proper inspection and installation are important. Replacement should only be carried out if the technical requirements are clearly known and the installation can be performed correctly. When in doubt, a qualified professional should be consulted.
