Intatec CBV1 Heat Pump Combi Ball Valve with 400 Micron Filter – 1" BSP
Ball Valve with Integrated 400 Micron Filter Cartridge — 1" BSP — PN25 — Lever Handle
The Intatec CBV1 is a combination ball valve and 400 micron filter in a single compact brass body, with 1" BSP threaded connections. It provides both full-bore isolation and debris filtration in one fitting — eliminating the need for a separate inline strainer and reducing the total number of joints in the heat pump pipework circuit.
The integrated 400 micron mesh filter cartridge captures particles and debris before they reach the heat pump heat exchanger, refrigerant circuit, or other sensitive system components. The lever handle allows quick visual confirmation of valve state (open or closed). Also available in 28mm compression (BVF28) and 35mm compression (BVF35) for connection to copper or plastic pipe systems.
BVF Range — Variant Selection
| Code | Connection | Typical system pipe | Body length | Overall length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CBV1 | 1" BSP (female) | Threaded manifolds, plant rooms | 60.9mm | 93mm |
| BVF28 | 28mm compression | 28mm copper / plastic pipe | 60.9mm | 110mm |
| BVF35 | 35mm compression | 35mm copper / plastic pipe | 60.9mm | 115mm |
* All three variants share the same body, filter specification, and performance ratings. The BVF01 is supplied in this listing; BVF28 and BVF35 are listed separately.

Key Features
Isolation + filtration in one body
The CBV1 combines a full-bore quarter-turn isolation ball valve with a Y-pattern 400 micron mesh filter cartridge in a single compact brass body. This eliminates the need for a separate strainer fitting and reduces the total number of connections in the circuit.
400 micron mesh cartridge
The 400µm stainless mesh filter cartridge captures metal particles, scale fragments, and construction debris before they enter the heat pump. The cartridge can be removed, cleaned, and replaced without cutting or draining the full system — close the ball valve, unscrew the cartridge housing, remove and inspect.
Lever handle — immediate visual state
Unlike K-type extended key valves (designed for fully insulated outdoor use), the BVF01 uses a conventional lever handle which is in-line with the flow when open and perpendicular when closed. This makes the BVF01 best suited for indoor manifold or plant room locations where the valve does not need to be buried under insulation.
PN25 solid brass — rated for heat pump duty
Rated to 25 bar and -10 to +90°C, the BVF01 comfortably handles the working pressures and temperatures found in air source and ground source heat pump systems, including glycol-blended circuits.
Installation & Maintenance Notes
Install the BVF01 in line with the flow direction marked on the valve body — the filter must be correctly oriented to function. For heat pump return pipework, the preferred position is on the return leg upstream of the heat pump, so debris is captured before reaching the heat exchanger. Flush the system pipework thoroughly before commissioning. Inspect the filter cartridge at each annual service and clean or replace as necessary.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the CBV1 the same as the BVF28 and BVF35 but with different connections?
Yes — all three BVF variants share the same body design, filter specification, and performance ratings. The CBV1 has 1" BSP female threaded connections; the BVF28 and BVF35 have 28mm and 35mm compression ends respectively for direct copper or plastic pipework connection. Choose based on your pipework type and connection preference.
Does the CBV1 replace a magnetic filter like the IntaKlean HP?
The CBV's 400 micron mesh cartridge captures physical debris and particles. A magnetic filter captures magnetite (iron oxide sludge) which the mesh cannot. For a new or recently flushed heat pump system, a magnetic filter on the system return is recommended in addition to the BVF filter valve — particularly for systems with radiators, which generate magnetite over time. The two products complement rather than replace each other.
How is the filter cartridge accessed and cleaned?
Close the ball valve, relieve any residual system pressure, then unscrew the filter cartridge housing from the valve body. Remove the mesh cartridge, rinse under clean water to remove any trapped debris, inspect for damage, and refit. If the mesh is heavily fouled or damaged, replace the cartridge. Inta recommend checking the filter at each annual service visit.
Can the BVF01 be used for flow regulation?
No — like all ball valves, the CBV1 is an isolation device only and should only be used in the fully open or fully closed positions. Partial opening of a ball valve causes cavitation, erosion of the ball seat, and can damage the valve permanently. For flow rate control and balancing on a heat pump circuit, use a dedicated flow balancing valve such as the Intatec INFBV2850.
