Lid - Ø 130 (3-130-036)

Introduction

The Lid - Ø 130 is an essential component designed for the SWPro modular flue system. It is specifically engineered to cap and seal the end of a flue, ensuring an airtight closure and protecting your heating system’s efficiency. Constructed from high-grade 316L stainless steel, this flue cap provides not only durability but also resistance to the harsh conditions often encountered in heating applications.

Key Advantages

Durability: The use of premium 316L stainless steel guarantees longevity and resistance to corrosion, making it an ideal choice for both residential and commercial settings.

Safety: With its CE marking, the Lid - Ø 130 adheres to the strict European safety standards found in EN 1856-1, giving you confidence in its performance and compliance.

Ease of Installation: Featuring a push-fit jointing system, the flue cap can be installed quickly and securely. The Locking Band mechanism ensures that once the cap is in place, it remains secure without the need for extensive manual adjustments.

Detailed Features

- Premium Material: Made from 316L stainless steel, the cap is resistant to the effects of high temperatures and environmental wear and tear. This choice of material enhances longevity and minimizes maintenance needs.
- Versatile Temperature Applications: Whether you are dealing with non-condensing or condensing systems, the Lid - Ø 130 is designed to operate efficiently across varying temperature ranges.
- Secure Sealing: Equipped with a high-pressure sealing gasket (P1/H1), it reliably seals the flue, preventing any unwanted leaks and ensuring the system operates safely.
- Compliance and Safety: Maintaining a safe distance of 50mm from combustible materials is critical, and this product guarantees that such standards are met when installed correctly.

How It Works

The Lid - Ø 130 serves as a cap for the end of your flue, effectively stopping any loss of heat or emission leaks. It works as part of the broader SWPro modular system, where each component is meticulously designed to interact seamlessly. The push-fit jointing system, combined with a Locking Band, ensures that the cap remains firmly in place, even under varying pressure conditions.

Installation Tips

When installing the Lid - Ø 130, it is important to follow the recommended steps:

1. Preparation: Ensure that the flue system is fully assembled and that all components are inspected for any potential defects.
2. Fitting the Jointing Gaskets: In applications requiring P1 and H1 installations, jointing gaskets are crucial. Confirm that each connection point is fitted with a properly aligned gasket.
3. Securing the Cap: Once the Lid is positioned, use the Locking Band to secure it. This extra step makes sure that the cap is immovable and that the push-fit design remains intact.
4. Safety Clearance: Always verify that a minimum distance of 50mm is maintained from any combustible materials. This is essential to ensure operational safety and to comply with installation regulations.
5. Final Check: After installation, inspect all joints and seals. Regular maintenance checks are recommended to ensure that the system continues to operate efficiently.
