Radiator Accessories
Buderus offers a variety of accessories for installation
and control of the radiators for different piping
arrangements.
Mounting Brackets
Buderus panel radiators include wall mounting brackets.
Floor mounting brackets are available as an accessory.
Rough in instructions and mounting guidelines are
presented in chapter 5.
Piping Connections
Each stocking radiator has 20 mm (approx. 3/4) metric
male tappings on the bottom on one side. The radiator
can be mounted with these connections facing left or
right. Figure 9 shows supply and return connections
which cannot be reversed. Buderus supplies the following
compression fittings for most applications.
Compression fittings are available from Buderus in sets
of two (see Table 3). These fittings are normally secured
to the piping connection on the radiator. When diverter or
shutoff valves are used, the compression fittings mount
on the valve.
