Metal replacement is a key trend in this market, as engineered materials systems allow for more design freedom and integrated systems. A typical example of the benefits of utilizing TECHNYL® SAFE materials is the hydraulic group for gas boilers. Here, significant system cost efficiency can be achieved through design integration of several parts previously made of brass.
For the sanitary line of hydraulic groups, the most common requirements are long-term dimensional stability and resistance to chlorine at high temperatures, enabling resistance to oxidative degradation.
A good alternative to TECHNYL® SAFE, when drinking water compatibility is not required (typically for the heating line) is TECHNYL® A218 V30 BK 34NG.
Heating system applications currently using TECHNYL® SAFE materials include the hydraulic group, heating manifold, circulation pumps, valves, floor heating fittings, heat exchanger parts, as well as solar heating system components.
