Abstract (en)

[origin: US4850427A] An overheating and scaling control device for a fluid heating apparatus, such as a domestic water heater, removes the hot fluid in the heater when demand ceases. A piston (46) mobile within a case (28) separates the latter into two compartments (32, 36) respectively connected to the cold water supply pipe (16) and to the hot water discharge pipe (22). In operation, the pressure in pipe (16) is higher than the pressure in pipe (22) and piston (46) is moved to the left. On stopping, the pressures are equal in both pipes and spring (40) moves piston (46) to the right. Cold water is fed into the exchanger tube (20), so that the hot water contained in the latter is discharged into pipe (38) and compartment (36).
