The Caleffi 519700A is a 519 Bypass Valve differential pressure bypass valve with 1-1/4" female NPT inlet x 1-1/4" male NPT union outlet connections.
Best for zoned systems where closing zone valves would otherwise starve the circulator.

Key Features
Protects Circulators at Low Flow
As zone valves close, the bypass opens to maintain minimum circulator flow, preventing pump noise, cavitation and premature wear.
Adjustable Differential Setting
The bypass setpoint is field-adjustable, so the valve can be matched to the circulator curve and the design differential of the system.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Caleffi 519700A do?
It maintains minimum circulator flow as zone valves close. Without a bypass, a circulator can be left pumping against a nearly closed system, which causes noise, cavitation and premature wear.
Is the setting on Caleffi 519700A adjustable?
Yes. The differential setpoint is field-adjustable so the valve can be matched to the circulator curve and the design differential pressure of the system.
What connection does Caleffi 519700A use?
It is supplied with 1-1/4" female NPT inlet x 1-1/4" male NPT union outlet connections. Other sizes and connection styles in the 519 Bypass Valve range are listed under Related Products.
What are the pressure and temperature limits of Caleffi 519700A?
Maximum operating pressure is 150 psi.
What is the warranty on Caleffi 519700A?
Caleffi covers this product under its standard two-year limited warranty against defects in material and workmanship from the date of shipment. ZOT Supply is an authorized Caleffi distributor.
