Question 1

Does this come with a fitting bracket? And can you post extra pictures of the other side (so I can see the temperature / pressure ratings etc?

Accepted Answer

No it does not, so had to purchase it separately using a large jubilee clip as nothing welded onto the vessel. Says 10 Bar and -10/+100C.

Question 2

Can this be used for unvented systems?

Accepted Answer

If you mean unvented hot water systems then yes, but not for unvented heating (sealed heating) systems.
Check if this model has a mounting bracket  otherwise you will need to purchase one.
Also check the size of the inlet to the vessel - they are often 3/4", so you will need a 3/4" brass adapter if your pipe doesn't already have one (modern pipes are metric and will typically be 22mm rather than 3/4").

Question 3

Is a fixing bracket attached to the vessel?

Accepted Answer

HelloThis vessel isn't supplied with a mounting bracket there is a version with a bracket clip on the back.Here is a link to our website on Amazon : http://www.amazon.co.uk/Aquasystems-Potable-Expansion-Integrated-Bracket/dp/B01BKE85HY/ref=aag_m_pw_dp?ie=UTF8&m=A3CDXZXWOMXNSS Alternatively you could buy this vessel and a wrap round type bracket to fix it to the wall and here is a link for this on Amazonhttp://www.amazon.co.uk/Expansion-Vessel-Bracket-sizes-Litres/dp/B00QVM4PAM/ref=aag_m_pw_dp?ie=UTF8&m=A3CDXZXWOMXNSSBest regards

Question 4

My existing expansion vessel screws directly into the top of the hot water tank (no bracket is needed). In this respect is it suitable?

Accepted Answer

You should check with the manufacturer of your cylinder.  Normally they will have a recommended replacement part.  Fitting another brand may stress the joint with the cylinder if the new expansion vessel is too heavy when mounted.
