Description of the appliance
BAG

is a water separator which can be used in conjunction with
any boiler; it is able to separate the water in the heat generator
circuit from the rest of the heating system by dividing it into two
(

MIX BASIC
) or three zones (

2 MIX BASIC
) which are at
different temperatures. It includes a mixing bottle, an electronic
board, two/three circulation units and one/two 3-way mixing
valves which control the water temperature in the low temper-
ature zones.
It can be housed inside a box (accessory) which can be built into
the wall or it can be wall-mounted.
BAG

is able to manage the delivery temperatures of the indi-
vidual zones separately. Its use is indispensable if the system is
divided into a high temperature zone (radiators) and one / two
low temperature zones (radiant panels / fanconvectors) whose
flow rate of water is greater than that delivered by the circula-
tion unit of the boiler.
The request for heat from the individual zones is via ambient
thermostats (TA) or chrono-thermostats (CT).
