2.3 Hot water requirements
The stored hot water temperature must
not exceed 60ºC (see page 17, Stored hot
water temperature).
The hot water supply to the pump must be
via a Salamander approved method:
The best hot connection from the cylinder
is either
• A 3⁄4” NO STOP ESSEX FLANGE. See
Figure 3 or
• Alternatively a Salamander S flange or
other approved top entry flanges. See
page 15/16.
• Never fit to top entry flange if the pump
is fitted above the cylinder.

3. Anti-vibration couplers
(Hoses)
The anti-vibration (AV) couplers are
designed to limit the transfer of pump
vibration to the associated pipe work. All
Salamander AV couplers are ¾ ” BSP x
22mm push fit with built-in isolating valves.
Note: the RP50PT and RP50PS are supplied
with 15mm couplers with isolating valves
