Smoke pressure switch (pressostat) 150/130 Pa for Immergas Star gas boiler (1.016884)
The pressostat or smoke pressure switch is designed for use in turbo gas boilers. This component is responsible for measuring the pressure in the flue gas system. In case of issues such as blockage or icing of the flue, the pressostat sends a signal to shut down the boiler, preventing potential emergency situations.
