Conbraco 18C-512-3-150 Valve
The Conbraco 18C-512-3-150, a high-capacity Apollo 18C-500 series temperature and pressure relief valve, is engineered specifically for the protection of commercial-grade hot water heaters and storage tanks. Featuring a 3/4" Female NPT inlet and outlet, this automatic T&P valve is factory set to discharge at a 150 PSI relief pressure and a temperature of 210°F. With an impressive ASME Section IV certified capacity of 1,912,000 BTU/hr, it is a critical component for high-output hydronic systems. The unit utilizes a rugged ASTM B584 bronze body and a 3" probe length element coated with a specialized material to prevent mineral buildup and corrosion, ensuring long-term seat-to-disc alignment. For technicians managing high-volume domestic water heating configurations, this commercial T&P valve provides the necessary over-pressure and thermal safety margins required by current code standards including ANSI Z21.22 and CSA listings.
Key Benefits- High BTU Rating: Capable of managing up to 1,912,000 BTU/hr, making it suitable for large-scale commercial storage tanks.
- Corrosion Resistance: Features a protective element coating and a silicone seat disc to resist scaling and aggressive water conditions.
- Industry Compliance: Fully certified to ASME Section IV standards and CSA registered for mission-critical safety applications.
- Reliable Construction: Built with a heavy-duty bronze body and tamper-resistant bonnet screws for professional-grade durability.
Is this valve suitable for steam boiler applications?
No, the 18C-500 series is specifically designed for commercial hot water heaters and storage tanks; it is not intended for steam service.
What is the function of the 3-inch probe?
The probe monitors the temperature of the water at the top of the tank. When it reaches 210°F, the element expands to open the valve, preventing the system from reaching dangerous boiling temperatures.
Can I use a 3/4" discharge line with this valve?
Yes, the outlet is 3/4" NPT, but ensure the discharge piping is as short as possible and never smaller than the valve outlet to avoid backpressure.
