Thermostatic radiator valve Purmo VMP06A12, angle, 1/2" connection

The Purmo VMP06A12 thermostatic radiator valve, angle type with a 1/2" threaded connection, is intended for controlling flow to heating radiators in residential and commercial systems. The valve is designed for installation at the radiator inlet in an angled orientation and accepts either a manual control head or a thermostatic sensor head, depending on user preference and system design. The product is compatible with standard radiator piping that uses 1/2" fittings and provides a compact, reliable means to regulate radiator flow.

Advantages

The valve offers precise flow regulation when paired with an appropriate control head, enabling room temperature control and energy savings through reduced overheating. Its angled body simplifies connection to radiator fittings and pipe runs where a straight valve would be impractical. Constructed to meet typical heating system requirements, the valve provides stable operation and is suitable for both new installations and replacements.

Suitable for

• Domestic radiator heating systems with 1/2" connections
• Commercial and light-industrial radiator installations
• Retrofit projects replacing straight valves with angled connections
• Systems requiring either manual or thermostatic head control

Key specifications

• Connection type: angled radiator valve with 1/2" threaded inlet/outlet
• Compatibility: accepts manual control heads or thermostatic sensor heads
• Function: regulates flow to the radiator for temperature control
• Installation position: angle-mounted at radiator inlet
• Application: suitable for hot water central heating systems

How to use

Install the valve in the radiator inlet using the 1/2" threaded connection, ensuring pipework is depressurized and drained before fitting. Mount the valve with the angled body oriented to match the radiator and pipe alignment, then tighten to the manufacturer's recommended torque. Attach a compatible manual or thermostatic head to achieve the desired control mode. After installation, refill and purge the system to remove air, and check for leaks and correct operation of the valve and control head.

Usage recommendations

For dependable performance, use an appropriate thermostatic or manual head specified for radiator valves and follow local plumbing codes. Periodically inspect for leaks and verify that the valve spindle and head move freely; if the system is cleaned or chemically treated, flush according to system manufacturer guidance to avoid valve fouling.
