Applications
- Protecting central heating systems with boilers and heat pumps where maintaining safe operating pressure and the possibility of connecting a diaphragm expansion vessel are required.
- Use in small and medium-sized water boiler rooms where constant pressure monitoring with a pressure gauge and automatic system venting are necessary.
- Heating systems with a glycol solution (up to 50%) requiring the IBO MGB safety group to withstand an increased concentration of the medium and an operating temperature of up to 95°C.
- Systems with diaphragm expansion vessels up to 320 mm in diameter and weighing up to 45 kg, mounted directly on the safety group rail.
- Systems where gravity drainage of the medium from the safety valve to the sewage system is required while maintaining visibility of the discharge.
The IBO MGB 3 bar / MGB 6 bar safety group for boilers and heat pumps provides comprehensive pressure protection for the heating system.
Features, description, and technical data
The IBO MGB 3 bar / MGB 6 bar safety group is a complete wall-mounted device designed to work with a diaphragm expansion vessel and a heat source such as a boiler or heat pump in central heating systems. Its main purpose is to monitor and protect the system against excessive pressure increase by using a safety valve set below the maximum permissible pressure of the heat source, as well as to provide continuous pressure readings from the pressure gauge and automatic system venting.
The safety group body is made of CW614N brass, while the mounting rail is made of galvanized steel and secured to the wall with wall plugs and screws, providing stable support for a diaphragm expansion vessel up to 320 mm in diameter and weighing up to 45 kg. The body features female threaded connections for connecting the system and diaphragm expansion vessel, a pressure gauge (range 0–4 bar or 0–10 bar), a 1/2" safety valve set to 3 bar or 6 bar, and an automatic air vent with a shut-off valve.
The IBO MGB safety group is designed to operate at the maximum operating pressure corresponding to the version (3 bar or 6 bar), a maximum medium temperature of 95°C, and a maximum glycol concentration of 50%. The structural components have been selected to allow gravity discharge of the medium from the safety valve to the sewage system while maintaining visibility of the outflow and eliminating the risk of negative pressure by avoiding a permanent connection to the sewage system.
During installation, the IBO MGB safety group should be installed as close as possible to the heat source, on the supply or return pipe, in a way that prevents it from being accidentally isolated by a valve and without any restrictions or additional shut-off valves between the device and the boiler or heat pump. The installation location must ensure the safe discharge of liquid from the safety valve without directing it toward people nearby, and provide convenient access for operation and periodic leak-tightness inspections.
Operation of the IBO MGB safety group includes checking the leak-tightness of the safety valve, air vent, and body periodically, approximately every 3 months, as well as testing the valve by turning the knob several times to remove any possible contaminants. If the air vent leaks, it is recommended to unscrew it, clean its interior, and reinstall it. All servicing work must be performed after the system has cooled down and has been drained of the medium and pressure by qualified personnel.
The IBO MGB safety group is subject to the Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU as a device designed in accordance with recognized engineering practice; therefore, it is not marked with the CE mark. The complete user manual is available on the Dambat website in the instructions section. Dambat is a trusted manufacturer of pumps and hydrotechnical equipment with quality certificates, confirming the high quality and reliability of the IBO MGB 3 bar / MGB 6 bar safety groups.
FAQ
What is the IBO MGB 3 bar / MGB 6 bar safety group used for?
The IBO MGB 3 bar / MGB 6 bar safety group is used to monitor pressure and protect the heating system against excessive pressure increase by means of a safety valve, pressure gauge, and automatic air vent, while also working with a diaphragm expansion vessel.
How do I select the appropriate IBO MGB safety group version for my system?
The IBO MGB safety group version should be selected so that the opening pressure of the safety valve (3 bar or 6 bar) is lower than the maximum permissible pressure of the heat source, in accordance with the boiler or heat pump manufacturer's recommendations.
Where should the IBO MGB safety group be installed in the system?
The IBO MGB safety group should be installed as close as possible to the heat source, on the supply or return pipe, without any shut-off valves or restrictions between the group and the boiler, in a location that allows the safe discharge of the medium from the safety valve.
What are the basic operating parameters of the IBO MGB safety group?
