145 3/4’’-A Automatic Bypass Valve
The 145 3/4’’-A Automatic Bypass Valve controls flow of water through a bypass circuit which is installed between flow and return pipework, typically at or near the boiler. Building Regulation advice states that if a bypass is installed, an Automatic Bypass Valve must be fitted.
The 145 3/4’’-A saves energy by only allowing flow through the bypass when needed i.e. when flow through the system is reduced when zone valves or radiator thermostats are closing. The use of an ABV is recommended by the UK government as Best Practice in the CHeSS (Central Heating System Specifications) guide to central heating systems.

Function
At equal pressure between the inlet and outlet side the valve is closed. The valve disc is pushed by a spring against the valve seat. If there is a pressure difference between the inlet and outlet sides, then a force is exerted on the valve disc and against the spring. If this force exceeds the force of the spring, then the valve begins to open in proportion to the rise in differential pressure and maintains a constant bypass flow as indicated on the flow diagram.
