ThermOmegaTech® Introduces Freeze and Scald Protection Valves with an Integrated Y Strainer

/ 0 Comments / in Product / by Christine Tarlecki

ThermOmegaTech®, a leading innovator in self-actuated thermostatic valve technology, has introduced new Freeze and Scald Protection valve configurations with an integrated 20-mesh Y strainer.

The new design combines the thermostatic valve and Y strainer into a single assembly, eliminating the need to install a separate strainer. Designed with field installation in mind, the integrated configuration simplifies installation while helping protect the valve from debris and contaminants in the piping system.

Benefits of the new integrated design include:

Y strainer for FP and SP valves

  • Fewer installation components
  • Supports preventive maintenance
  • Reduced installation time and costs
  • Added protection against contaminants
  • The same reliable thermostatic scald and freeze protection

ThermOmegaTech® Freeze and Scald Protection valves automatically respond to temperature changes without requiring electricity, sensors, or manual operation, providing reliable protection for piping and equipment from extreme temperatures.

This new integrated Y strainer design is ideal for emergency safety showers and other piping systems exposed to extreme temperatures, particularly in applications where debris or contaminants may be present.

ThermOmegaTech® Announces New NSF/ANSI 61 Certification for Pump Thermal Relief Valves

/ 0 Comments / in News, ThermOmegaTech / by Christine Tarlecki

ThermOmegaTech® is excited to announce its pump thermal relief valves’ NSF/ANSI 61 certification. NSF/ANSI 61 and 372 is an American National Standard that establishes minimum health-effects requirements for the chemical contaminants and impurities indirectly imparted to drinking water from products, components, and materials used in drinking water systems.

ThermOmegaTech’s ECONO/HAT-RA is a thermal relief valve designed to safeguard domestic water supply booster pumps from high-temperature damage caused during system abnormalities like deadheading, construction usage, and VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) troubleshooting errors, all while reducing water waste and increasing overall system efficiency.

“Our thermal relief valves, the ECONO/HAT-RA valves, are often used on pump systems with an NSF/ANSI 61 requirement. Because of this, our customers must obtain approval to use our valves with every system sold.

The benefit of this certification is that the approval will no longer be needed on the customers’ end. This streamlines sales and encourages system engineers to use our products without fear of added internal cost,” explains OEM Sales Manager Tim McCollum, who was instrumental in the valves’ certification.

In addition to the stainless steel ECONO/HAT line, the valves that are now certified include the stainless-steel valves in the HAT and IC lines:

“Listening to our customers is essential to our business, and obtaining this NSF/ANSI 61 certification to streamline the valve ordering process will save time and money for our customers, something ThermOmegaTech® strives to do daily,” McCollum says.
