Flange (for 4 tubes) for THERMEX boiler
The flange for THERMEX boiler with 4 tubes is a reliable alternative to heating elements with power ranging from 700 to 2000 Watts. This flange is designed for the installation of dry heating elements and ensures the durability and efficiency of your boiler's operation.
Product description
The flange is made of high-quality stainless steel, which guarantees resistance to corrosion and longevity. It features two openings for the installation of dry heating elements: one tube is longer (420 mm), intended for powerful heating elements from 100 to 1200 Watts, while the other is shorter (365 mm) for heating elements with a power of 700-900 Watts. The other two tubes are designated for the temperature sensor and thermostat.
Additionally, the flange includes a port for installing an anode with M6 threading. This significantly extends the lifespan of your boiler, as heating elements for THERMEX often fail, and this flange addresses that issue.
Advantages
- Operation of the "dry" heating element: no contact with water increases lifespan.
- Durability: stainless steel flange ensures reliability.
- Quiet water heating: minimal noise level during operation.
