Siphon protection

Siphon protection valves or angle check valves are prescribed safety devices for heating oil tank systems.

There is a risk of siphoning in tank systems where the highest liquid level is above the suction line. If there is a leak or a leak in the suction lines, the tank contents can run dry without siphon protection.

Siphon protection valves prevent the liquid from leaking at this point.
