How to check if the ref. 87161034890 is the part for your boiler
What determines it is not the boiler model, but the reference printed on the part you already have installed.
- Find the reference printed on the installed part and check whether it matches the catalogue reference 87161034890. If it is not visible, do not identify the part from its shape alone.
- Check the full boiler model on its data plate and look for it in the model associations on this page.
- Compare the connections and physical body with the original part before installation.
- If anything is unclear, send us a photo of the marking via WhatsApp before placing your order.
Symptoms and faults that the safety valve 87161034890 resolves.
The safety valve releases pressure when the circuit exceeds its setting. These are the typical symptoms and what to do:
Common symptoms and faults
- 01
Water is constantly dripping from the drain tube of the valve, even when the boiler is cold.
Cause: The valve seat does not close properly, either due to wear or because a limescale particle is preventing the seal.
Pull the bleed lever for a few seconds to flush out any possible debris and check if the dripping stops.
- 02
The valve leaks water just when the boiler heats up strongly or reaches a high temperature.
Cause: The pressure in the circuit rises above the valve limit, often because the expansion vessel no longer absorbs that increase properly.
Check the pressure gauge when cold and hot; if it rises significantly when heating, first check the expansion vessel and its charge pressure.
- 03
No water comes out when pressing the manual bleed lever.
Cause: The internal mechanism is jammed, usually due to limescale or because it hasn't been activated for a long time.
Operate the lever carefully several times; if it doesn't release a single drop, the valve is not fulfilling its safety function.
- 04
There are stains of limescale or rust underneath the gas valve, although it is not currently dripping.
Cause: It has been intermittently bleeding in the past, indicating that the seat is already failing from time to time.
Clean the area and monitor it for a few days with the boiler in normal operation to confirm if the dripping reappears.
These symptoms can have more than one cause. If your boiler displays a fault code, send it to us via WhatsApp along with a photo of the labeling, and we'll tell you if this is the part.
